Hi,

Can anyone suggest an Id for this fly please ? I wondered if it might be Tachinidae possibly Carcelia sp ?

Photo taken 21st May 2006 in my garden in Surrey Southern England.

Regards Chas

Mydaea corni (formerly scutellaris) male (Muscidae). This is a great shot, as it clearly shows that there is no long posterdorsal on the hind tibia

Tony,

Many thanks for that, a total miss with the Id by me with this one.

Regards Chas
