I encountered this today (31st May 2020) in an old sandpit in northeastern Lower Saxony (Germany). This is a very xerothermic habitat with little vegetation and open soils. The fly was foraging on Thymus sp.
best regards
Jann

Hello,

these pseudo-Tachinas are on the wing here, too, in the last days. They were identified in this forum as Peleteria rubescens last year (from exactly the same location).
Best regards,
Jürgen

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
