Yes - Aplomya confinis (Fall?n 1820) but I think many species have the wrong myia/mya ending and I defy anyone to remember exactly which species has which without checking in their books first  |

That's why I write -myia in all cases, whether it is allowed by the taxonomic police or not. I'm not gonna criticise any spelling... but in Greek it is -myia Theo |
