Hello,

This Anthomyia sp. ♂ came across the sheet during a night hunt. Do you think it is possible to identify the species?

Impossible to go further in the determination?

Hello,

I try one last time to raise the subject for this fly, in case... :)

Anthomyia procellaris or bazini

Hello JC, the photos are a bit blurry - would be nice to see the hind tibiae and the arista sharply.
But the 3 postsutural spots are confluent as do the lateral ones with the spot on the wingbase. The grey area on the scutellum is restricted to apex.
Following Michelsen (2008): "The Anthomyia pluvialis complex in Europe" we find Anthomyia quinquemaculata which is a species of the Mediterranean Subregion.

Sorry Paul, I was seconds too late - but what do you think of A. quinquemaculata?

The choice in my view is restricted between procellaris and quinquemaculata and with only theese photos we can't be shure; but for what can be seen of hind tibiae I'd vote for quinquemaculata

Ok thank you, I think we can say that in terms of reliability of the determination, Anthomyia quinquemaculata is neither certain nor very probable, but probable.
