Good afternoon,
Is this fly Phasia aurulans? Due to comparable size, I first suspected that this is Phasia obesa. But seemingly there are some, similar species.
Date: May 19, 2021, clearing with sand-dry scrubbing in a pine forest near Mainz in Germany.
Found together wit

Thanks for the help.

Hi Bembix, it could be P. aurulans, but I haven't seen enough of these to be sure. Usually the presutural area should be completely black...

Hello Eric,
thanks for your quick feedback. When searching in the net, I saw some sample pictures. That's why I came to P. Aurulans.
