I would share with you 2 pictures of a unknown syrphid moulting...  I am not sure if these flies have different moulting along their adult life, or just to larvae to adult... Edited by Xema on 16-07-2009 11:14 |

Splendid pictures. To answer your question: no, adult syrphids (imagos) don't mould again. Pierre Duhem |

I am not sure how you can iD it with these pictures, that is awesome. Maybe this would be the imago?  Thanks to every one for comment |
