This doesn't seem to be a Myopa buccata. I'm not sure which this Myopa could it be.

I spotted two different (maybe new) Myopa today. 16 ?C, near river, on Raphanus raphanistrum. Andrenidae bees were common around and other bee families.

i posted a post that I told this could be a Myopa buccata!! It didn't appear. :S
It is Myopa buccata, almost surely, as I saw the photos better. :)

Jorge,

Is it taken with the 150mm lens? Why don't you crop down to 600 pixels? The software for this forum doesn't do it automagically.

ok. next time, I will put only 600 pxl.
Thanks, Andre and Kahis for confirmation. :D

No, Pierre. I don't have a 150 mm lens. I used a 105 mm sigma with kenko extension tubes as usual. Sometimes I use the other lens, but it is not the case.
