Hello,
I photographed this fly in Argentera (CN), Italy, 1700m a.s.l. on August 18th 2024. I think it is a
Cylindromyia, but is it possible to identify its species based on these photos?
Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

I think it's a male
C. pusilla:
- apical scutellar bristles missing
- abdomen without discals
- arista in its apical 1/3 lance-shaped and broadened
