Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Empis - not scutellata but dimidiata

Hi,
According to the partly yellow antennae and the short first antennal segment I consider this male Empis scutellata. As far as I know there is no other member of subgenus Xanthempis that has such antennae. Seen in southwestern Germany (50 km west of Stuttgart) on 12th June.
Thanks for comments, Sundew
