Hi, This fly was sleeping in a stinging nettle leaf in my garden yesterday evening. It should belong to Rhagionidae; can be said more? Thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [146.67Kb] Edited by Sundew on 08-06-2008 21:36 |

It's not the first time I mix up these two families  . I thought Therevidae were much hairier. Nevertheless I am very happy to have a species name - many thanks, Theo!Sundew |
