 Hylaeus is right, but this genus belongs to Hymenoptera und should not be posted under "Diptera (adults)"! Use the forum "Other insects...", please!

 We had many threads concerning bubble blowing of Diptera and Hymenoptera, one important is http://www.dipter...ad_id=1016.
See also "Latest articles" in the right side bar - the third title "Fly bubble blowing" leads to a fine summary!
