This was flying at 900 metres in a damp habitat in the Kerkini mountains in Northern Greece, but I think I have seen it alot in my malaise material.

It is a Cylindromyia. There are many species. I cannot tell the species from these pics. Please include samples in the material you send to Chris. Theo |

Dear Theo, Thanks for the reply, but Chris who? I do not send any samples to anybody called Chris, all my Tachinids go to Guido Van de Weyer. |

I think Theo was meaning me - but I didn't join Gordon's survey  As much as I would love the chance to have more tachinids from that part of the world other people are better at identifying them than I am ... put me on a 'spares only' distribution  |

Checking my records I see that Guido has already given me 5 species of Cylindromyia for the national park list:- as below Cylindromyia auriceps Cylindromyia bicolor Cylindromyia brassicaria Cylindromyia intermedia Cylindromyia pilipes |
