Looks can be deceiving, it's hairs on the eyes are visible and look to be in rows, but they are not! Probably an photo effect. This is a female Eristalis alpina, you can see the heavily dusted front part of the thorax in comparison with the much less dusted hind part! greetings Edited by Gerard Pennards on 03-06-2010 15:39 Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

Gerard do you think that the absense of broad black patch on the wings characteristic for female of E. alpina is also photo effect? Greetings, Lukasz |
