Now here's something for Valery :-)

Differently sized Otites on a hedgerow near Vienna.
Is there so much interspecific variation or do they belong to different species? I don't see obvious differences in the wing color or pattern.

All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

Many species of Otites can strongly vary in size.

Thanks Val.
So I leave it at genus level, as I feel unsure about guttata vs. centralis
