It is simply a male Phorocera obscura. This species does occur all over Siberia and in Japan, so it is to be expected in Korea. Theo |

Thanks a lot! It's very common and occurs in April to June. The genus Phorocera is not recorded in Korea, so I just misidentified as Compsilura concinnata. I have one more question. What is the taxonomic key to distinguish P. obscura and P. grandis? Edited by KimGH on 29-04-2019 10:16 |

For the Central European species, there is a very nice key by Tschorsnig & Herting. Thanks to Chris Raper, there is an English translation available: http://tachinidae.myspecies.info/node/17 Of course, in many, if not most cases, your fauna is totally different. BUt in the case of Phorocora, it seems the eastern and western Palaearctic species are identical. Your picture shows Phorocera obscura. Theo |
