Only this unsharp picture but is genus possible to tell? In that case perhaps intermedia or fasciata? Photo from Åsängssjön 62,55N 18,13E Ångermanland, Sweden 27 july 2008 Thanks for your help in advance Regards Kurt Holmqvist kurt attached the following image:  [130.61Kb] |

Hi Kurt, My first post, here goes... I think it's... Diptera > Syrphidae > Didea fasciata (D. fasciata) - No Common Name Kind of a S. ribesii physically morphed!!! Any dipteras in your neck of the woods at the moment? I can't wait for the British spring!!! Take care, Jason

Come on boys, an easy one! The halteres are clearly visible and they are clearly yellow, so it's for sure a male Didea fasciata! greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |
