 Hello everyone, this Tachinidae I found in Yerseke, the Netherlands, feeding on Heracleum sphondylium. I took these two pictures. Someone can give me an ID? Thanks.

 Looks like Lydella grisescens to me Smile

 It is a Lydella, but it looks like L. stabulans to me.
It should be a male, since the proclinate orbital brisltes seem absent. The hairs on tergites are erect, thus indicating stabulans rather than grisescens.

 Thanks Theo

I wondered becuase of the feet size, shouldn't they be bigger for stabulans and smaller for grisescens?

 If it is definitely a male then I would expect the fore tarsal claws to be longer in stabulans ... unless these have been broken? I have been catching L.grisescens here recently.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

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