Hi, this is my first thread as my interest in Diptera is occasional. Because the lack of median callus (seems to me), this specimen is not easy to me to identify by my keys; palpi and general aspect are similar to T. cordiger, but I need opinions about it. Collected by me in a clearing in woodland with bovids.
Locus: Sicily, Ragusa province, near Monterosso Almo, 425 m asl, on VI.03.2025. Thank's in advance for any opinion. Giorgio Pezzi.
