This beautiful fly was seen last Saturday at Sabi?anigo, Aragon, Spain, in flowers of Angelica archangelica, in open shrubland near a train line. Same size than Chloromyia formosa: 9-10 mm. Some ideas? Thanks  |

Chloromyia, but I will leave it to the others to say whether it is formosa or speciosa.

But.... I posted recently a Chloromyia and the eyes occuped all the head. In this fly the eyer are much smaller. Can be a sexual difference? This one being a female, i that case. |
