c.6mm Clitheroe UK July 13. I only got one shot before it flew. Can anyone help? Stephen R attached the following image: [155.3Kb] Edited by Stephen R on 15-07-2010 20:03 |

Perhaps something like Nemorilla floralis? The more convincing features aren't visible but Nemorilla do look similar to this one.

Thanks Chris. I'll look out for another. It seems to be tachinid time here - I photographed another Medina separata male today. Stephen. |

I have noticed a lot of Eriothrix rufomaculata but haven't seen much else for a week or so here. I should get out to the nearest nature reserve and check it out ... when the wind and drizzle stops
