I think Pegomya would be right!
But than ....what species do we have here ?
Palpen are yellow, abdome+legs yellow, fore femur infuscated, seems to have more then 2 pd on hind tibia, prealar seems long or longer and orbitalplate relative broad.........
It could fit to Pegomy bicolor, but i have doubt, because the antenna seems whole black and should be red at top.
And i still have no P.bicolor male to compare with...:(

For now.....Pegomya cf bicolor

Joke ;)

Hi Joke
Thanks for running an eye over this...I can live with P.cf bicolor :)
Remind me to Photoshop a bit of red on the antennae next time I post one of these....;):S...although I don't see any on the ones in the Gallery.

Regards Roger....Would-be Forger.
