Yes that's correct but for Hedy, in the Netherlands it is still called Paritamus geniculatus. It is time to change that........

In Britain and Belgium it is also still called Paritamus no dipterist seems to have noticed Lehr's work or took time to read it, Asilidae are strangely enough not popular : )

These names... Shock
It's already hard enough to distinguish the fly itself..!! Smile

Thank you Valerio and Reinoud for your reactions!
