Found this one at the Burn of Valayre feeding on Bog Asphodel. I only have one type of Parasyrphus on my checklist which is P.punctulatus. The photo's in the Gallery and old threads I've checked out seem to show a lighter pterostigma for punctulatus. Any ideas... EDIT; Still trawling looking for something that looks vaguely like this and I've come up with another contender, http://en.wikiped...2007-8.jpg. The stipes on the thorax and other bits and pieces on my one seem to match Dasysyrphus albostriatus too....god I hate Syrphids.... EDIT; Alter heading...Was; Parasyrphus / Dasysyrphus ?
