Hello,

This thread (http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=16949) reminded me of a fly I saw in June in a forest near Heerlen.
I was staggered about the lenght of the ovipositor which even could make some Tephritids jealous.
The palps seem to be smaller as the ones in Lonchaea palposa.
