Hi Thijs This is not an obvious spring species. The humerus seems to have only 3 bristles in a triangle, which would imply Huebneria. However, I don't see erect apical scutellar. So no obvious fit. Do you have the specimen ? If so, can you check whether the hind coxae are bare or with 1-2 setulae on back side ? Theo |

Hi Theo, No, it is flying in the garden. Sorry. I have overwintering plants at home. Maybe that's why it is too early. I've no better photos of the thorax and abdomen. I don't think it helps, but I've added three photos. Regards, Thijs thijsdegraaf attached the following image:  [58.16Kb] http://www.tuin-t...engels.htm |

The hairs on the hind coxae are so difficult to see that they are about the hardest to find on any tachinid. Even with a specimen they can be fiddly to find

And I haven't my fly anymore Chris, so I can't take a look (I only have a magnifying glass.) or send it to Theo.

Huebneria is out. Huebneria has a red scutellum. Sorry, my mistake. I see only 1 reclinate orbital seta, so I am starting to think Eumea Theo |

Ah.... Thanks. I've an Eumea mitis (probably) in September 2010 http://www.dipter...d_id=33740. That's the only Eumea I've seen in the garden. The other one is E. linearicornis I read.
