Hello i found this fly in my garden at Lake Thun 600m NN. It is worn, by the heavy rain or by a long flight. It must be Arctophila bombiformis, female. An old Swiss list tells that the spezies is normally found in the mountains between 900 and 2000m. Is that still correct and my animal just a lonely migrant?
