Dear Theo!

M. vicaria belongs to the polystigma group, too. You are right that it could be the species, too. At first I excluded the species because of the missing long black pile at the genae but perhaps that is only a result of the digital photos?

To me, Andre has a point.
The hairs on abdomen are long. Moreover, vicaria is clearly the earliest species, at least in The Netherlands.

Thank you very much for the ID.
I've read in the key of M.van Veen that M.vicaria has tergite 5 with hairs at an angle of 90 degrees. As I saw it again yesterday, I took some photos to try to show that feature.
The length of the body is exactly 8mm.

They were again 3 A.clarkella female with empty abdomen, but with only a little hole (2 or 3mm) at the end of the abdomen. They were alive on the ground.

In this picture you can see the long hairs on the gena (if gena is the same as the part Tachinologists call parafacialia).

Which definitely suggests vicaria.

To be clear: I wrote 'suggest', not '?s', like to hear Jens-Hermann first.
But in all circumstances great first call by Andre.
