Today. Alfajar?n, Monegros region, Zaragoza, NE Spain. Habitat: salty marsh, with many Limonium, Suaeda and some Microcnemum coralloides...  Can be identified? Thanks. Regards Edited by Isidro on 17-08-2008 10:54 |

Thanls Chir, but I have a Cylindromyia bicolor (not sure ID) from a different site (Pyrenees, 900 meters), with more black on abdomen and less white on sides of thorax. See http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=7693 In the other hand C. bicolor is not cited for Monegros zone, where are cited Cylindromyia auriceps, Cylindromyia crassa, Cylindromyia intermedia and Cylindromyia pilipes. Jorge, all these photographs I taked more or less in the middle between Alfajar?n and Perdiguera. |

I agree, it is not bicolor, unless the colours are dramatically altered. The pic does not allow a solid ID. First impression is C. intermedia. |

Thanks a lot Theo and Chrus. Colour not modificated and in various exemplars is here - orange, not red-. I will let it as Cylindromyia cf. intermedia. Thanks again, Isidro |
