Here I am again with another two Diptera from near Rome in Italy. This time I have no idea of the family Sad.

The top one should be a bee fly (Bombyliidae), for the bottom one I withhold any opinion for the moment other than that is must be one of the orthorrhaphous Brachycera. Mediterranean Diptera always have tricky surprises for us Northerners. Pfft

Thanks Paul. I'm glad we manage to surprise you sometimes Pfft. I will now go away on my own somewhere and figure out what an orthorrhaphous Brachycera might be! Sarah

Sorry for the specialist loingo. Orthorrhaphous Brachycera are the families like Asilidae, Rhagionidae, Stratiomyidae, Tabanidae, Bombyliidae, Empdidae and related.

Thanks... not an expression I think I'll be using much in everyday conversation, but it's just as well to know just in case Wink, Sarah

Second one looks like a Bombylidae as well.
But no standard one !
