This beautiful fly I just found in my garden and I have no idea which fly or even from which family it is. Can anybody say something more about it? Thanks.

Lift this one up again. Seems that Rui or Chris should know the name of this fly.  |

Mintho rufiventris For reference, this is a Cylindromyia - Mintho is a greyer fly with a laterally compressed abdomen, rather than cylindrical: ChrisR attached the following image:  [103.02Kb] Edited by ChrisR on 29-05-2008 09:45 |
