Hello!

This fly (about 8-10 mm) visited Heracleum blossoms yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany). Can it be determined more closely? Thanks!

Looks like another Voria ruralis ... I noticed the angled m-cu this time! Wink

Hi Chris, Voriini !
But I see discal setae.
And do I see hairs on the eye, Juergen, could you check the right eye please ?
In which case it would be ?Cyrtophleba.

I'm not sure, if I see it correctly, but there seem to be hairs of course.

Difficult to tell ... i thought they were hairs when I first saw the photo, but in closeup it could just be the same white dust (pollen?) as seen on the arista and some other bristles.

Well, difficult to tell.
I would say the eyes are bare, and this must be Athrycia trepida
-> strong discal setae so no Voria
-> eyes bare
-> spring species (no curvinervis)
-> not impression in wing (no impressa)

which leaves trepida

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
