December 2010, Southern Limburg, NL First thought was Eccoptomera, but arista seems a bit short. A rather big fly, the size of an average S. stercoraria (male). Ben Ben Hamers attached the following image:  [42.65Kb] |

For me (I chose my words carefully) it appears a Schroederella iners, but I won't be surprised when Andrzej is correcting me (again). I'd would like to see the prosternum

that is the Propleural bristle. No, I mean the prosternum, which may be found between the first pair of coxae, so in anterior, not lateral

But, Ben, please wait for Andrzej. When he sees the animal, we will know for sure what species. Because if he doesn't know, nobody knows.

prosternum http://www.dipter...p;sortby=P  seen as the fly was in front of us, and near the first pair of coxae, between them. From: Geller-Grimm.  Habitus (partial) for Asilidae, but shows clearly the relative position of the prosternum. Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 30-12-2010 22:42 |

Thanks Jorge and sorry Ruud for my ignorance. I should have digged myself into the snow to make such a picture, or the fly should have jumped in the air, which she did actually, but that went to fast to make a decent picture. Ben Ben Hamers attached the following image:  [26.79Kb] |

Come on, don't bother. I like to help. This makes diptera.info so much fun. I am sure Jorge thinks just the same. If I have to worry about all the mistakes I made, OMG, I think it is better not to visit the site again.  cheers, Ruud ruud van der weele rvanderweele@gmail.com |

BTW, Ben, Schroederella iners has not been often recorded from the Netherlands. So the fact that you were able to make a photo in our country of this beautiful insect is worth a compliment!

Thanks a lot to Andrzej, Ruud and Jorge. Ruud, It seemed not to be rare on the Kunderberg, I saw several of them. Ben |

once, in Hungary, I collected 3 on the same spot. I considered it very special.
