This came into our kitchen today. Near T?bingen (SW Germany), size 17 mm. The eyes under daylight are brown with a dark horizontal stripe (the fotos were taken with flash). The specimen was dead when fotos were taken. I think it is a Tabanus spec. Any more detailed information possible? cheers - martin diphascon attached the following image:  [162.96Kb] Edited by diphascon on 11-06-2006 21:13 |

Yes, Tabanus bromius, the most common species. Actually, the eye colouration in flash light approaches the reallife eye colouration quite reasonably. Theo Zeegers |
