Hello, I have no idea what this fly from April 16, 2020 from Leipzig (Saxony) could be called. Is that a Cheilosia species (Cheilosia sp., Cheilosia cf. vernalis…)? Thanks for your help, Maik Maik Hausotte attached the following image:  [42.7Kb] |

Hello Maik, there is no Cheilosia with triangleshaped orange markings on the abdomen. This is a female Melanostoma scalare. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

The dark antennae and the limited dusting in the frons and face do not accord well with scalare. M. mellinum is more probable. |
