Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Bombylius - which species?

Hi,
Today I photographed the first Bombylius in my life - what a luck! It rested on a Geranium in my garden.
Formerly I thought there would be only one species, B. major, in our region, but I miss the typical dark wing parts; mine has lighter wings. So can you help me with the species?
Many thanks, Sundew
