Yesterday. La Pe?a, Huesca, NE Spain. 500 meters high. Mix of mediterranean and mountain climate. Habitat: in the side of a lake, between the segdes (Phragmites australis), in a company of high numbers of Calopteryx xanthostoma. Size: more or less the same than Episyrphus balteatus.

The picture is not good, the ligh was in a wrong angle and the photo results very darkened. But you can see the stair design in the abdomen.

What can be?

Thanks.

Or it could be a Platycheirus, such as P.fulviventris for instance.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
