Very nice pics of Plat. setosus! Did you make them? It would be great if you want to put these pics also in the Syrphidae gallery of this site! Grin
Too bad my spanish is so poor, so I don't read your whole text with the photos.
And may I ask, do you also collect Syrphidae? The group of people looking at Syrphidae in Spain can always use new blood! Smile

Since you are a veganist, I suppose you are not willing to start collecting Syrphidae? Many Syrphids cannot be ID'd properly without the specimen itself awkward
Just like this Merodon...
