Turkey, Side, sand dunas-pine forest, 150% size of M. jacula. I thought it is Medetera diadema, but legs have to be yellow or dirty-yellow? Female Nikita Vikhrev attached the following image: [109.74Kb] Edited by Nikita Vikhrev on 27-03-2007 19:02 Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I checked this Medetera. Certanly it isn't M.diadema. It seems that no one of Russian species fit with this fly. Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

This Doli belongs to a group fasciata-striata-setiventris-signaticornis. I am afraid it is not possible to identify without making preparation of genitalia.

Thank you Igor. I've came to M.striata too, but it doesn't fit with M.striata description... Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
