Looks like it. Antenna is unusually dark, though. Could you make a dorsal view of the fly ? Theo |

Here it is. I noticed the dark antennae, too, but with the other properties I couldn't find a fitting alternative to arpadi. Rupert Huber attached the following image: ![]() [105.76Kb] Best greetings Rupert |

It is rather atypical, but I have no alternative for arpadi |

Thanks! Also the two species that I found listed for Austria, but not mentioned in the book (borealis, nigricornis) don't seem to be very similar to this one.
Best greetings Rupert |
