Hi, On 10th May I met at least two of these Tachinid males together with lots of other insects on Acer pseudoplatanus inflorescences in southern Brandenburg. When I saw the reddish scutellum, I was afraid to deal with a hardly identifiable Linnaemya and took a long series of pictures to catch also genitalia and sternites. However, chaetotaxy of Linnaemya does not fit. Meanwhile I think of Phorocera assimilis (in thread http://www.dipter...pid=196205 I read: fore tarsus as long as fore tibia, middle black longitudinal stripes on thorax narrower than the dividing space). So what do you say? Thanks in advance, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [181.64Kb] Edited by Sundew on 06-06-2013 22:04 |

I hope these two belong to the same species, because I cannot tell apart the pictures showing but one of them...
