Date: 2007-MAY-11
Location: Southeast Sweden (?land)
Habitat: Resting in a flower on grass field

Only one shot of this rather small fly (<10mm). I think it might be a Tachypeza sp (Hybotidae). I am grateful for any help with the ID.

Edit: Changed subject (Tachypeza sp?)

Trying to run it through the Scandinavian key as best I can I arrive at Platypalpus agilis. Maybe Igor will correct me.

Than you very much Paul! Maybe I can add it to the gallery if Igor doesn't have a different view on the ID.

You can always submit for the Gallery. I can always decide not to approve. :D (But I think this one will get in... ;))
