In the Tachinids key of Central Europe, the first feature to look at is hind tibia WITH or WITHOUT pv-bristles. Does the yellow arrow show a pv-bristle ? Christine Devillers attached the following image:  [111.22Kb] Edited by Christine Devillers on 05-11-2008 21:31 |

Is this the apical scutellar bristles (yellow arrow) ?

The apical scutellar is correct. In the same picture, you can see basal scutellar bristles. Very difficult to see, they are there. So this really should be brassicaria. The bristle on the tibia is posterio-dorsal, not -ventral. There is no pv bristle, that's why you can't pinpoint it. Theo |
