Since a week the numbers of Pollenia are greatly increasing in a yellow pan trap in my garden. They consist mostly of Pollenia rudis and some P. angustigena and P. pedicellata, but I key out one female with orange antenna as Pollenia viatica. That species should only fly in summer according to literature. If I interpret the characters correctly it has 2 anterodorsal bristles on the middle tibia, small yellow hairs posteroventrally on the hind femur and the tip of the palpi reddish-orange. Am I correct in the identification of Pollenia viatica?
