I found this one in the Gorges de Tavignano in Corsica on 4/9/2014 The only species with black legs and black tergites I can find are northern species (Xylota suecica, Chalcosyrpus nigripes) Maybe melanistic? Who can help? Jef Hendrix attached the following image:  [134.61Kb] |

My first impression was Chalcosyrphus piger (associated with Pinus spp.). I suposse it is melanistic form, but I can't be sure without specimen and I have never seen such form in Ch. piger. If it is not C.piger then we don't have any other similar species in Europe. Regards, Lukasz Edited by Lukasz Mielczarek on 04-09-2014 18:05 |
