A syrphid caught by a spider on a flower. But which one? (I can't identify the spider either). Today, in Portugal, near the coast. Thanks, Joaquim Alvesgaspar attached the following image: [119.22Kb] |

Back to the poor syrphid. Could it bee a Merodon equestris ? Body shape and wing venation match. Still I think there are many similar species in the south of Europe. |
