Never seen such a deep absolute black in an insect before. How to separate Phora atra from other species? Swarming behavior: 
Cheers, Lorin Font Color 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. |

COuld be atra but there are similar species (for example holosericea) that cannot be ruled out on thye basis of just this photo. It all comes down to male genitalia.
