I found this beautiful fly in Saxonia, Germany, near the Elbe river, in July 2017. Is it Acrosathe annulata? Thanks for your help. Greetings, Adrian

Hi AdrianBothe,

Nope, its a Thereva male. Looks very interesting! Probably Thereva microcephala… You have more photo's?

Kind regards,

Ectemnius

Hi AdrianBothe,

Although the bristles at the base of the hind femur are not visible, the clear longitudal stripes on the thorax, the single pair of dorso-centrals, the entirely white haired scutellum, and the habitus lead me to conclude: Male Thereva microcephala. Nice find!

Greetings,

Ectemnius

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
