I had 3 from Nikita, collected in Kursk region. Nice fly - and very distinctive with it's large size, strong dusting and deep gena.

I'm surprised Erikas has it in LIthuania, it is more a southern species (but then again, all these southerns are moving north these days !) Theo |

well Theo, I have several species from south of Lithuania, which distribution (according to literature) search as far northwards, as Poland is. The main reason of this is short Dipterological traditions in my country and interesting zoogeographical position
