Hi flyforum,

Today I found a nice little Sepsidae(?) sp. on some blossom of Tussilago farfara.
It was shy with the camera, so it hide itself underneath the flower..
Difficult to get, but at least I had two pictures.

Typicaly redish coxa?

place: Amsterdam forest, area with meadowland

Thank you Nikita,

I'll call it S. fulgens, with a questionmark after it.
