Yesterday I watched a medium sized grey fly (with quite silvery frons and parafacia) closely following a bee Andrena barbilabris, It shadowed the bee very closely, the way some Sarcophagidae do. I have taken the specimen and it is clearly an Anthomyidae. Can anyone advise what genus this might be?

Many thanks Stephan, that certainly looks like the fly in question.

Hi. Please delete all photos of E. carrapateira I've uploaded. I did not remember that I already had uploaded that species in particular. Except the pallidifacies (this was not present yet). Thank

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
