Hi flyforum,

I am not sure about this Empis opaca(?)
I could not find any black spots on the thorax, but they could be out of reach (of the eye)
Other characteristics fits rather good..

I like to know your opinion :)

Close: Empis nigricans (the whole of the abdomen is dusted grey, not just the sides of the tergites).

So they could be twins.. (almost ;) )
