Hi, I'm here again... (I still have plenty of flies to confirm ! :D)

This one I photographied in Santorin (Greece) in June 2001.
I think this could be Thyridanthrax perspicillaris : what is you opinion ?

Thyridanthrax, the angle makes it difficult to be sure but it looks most like perspicillaris. a dorsal shot would be better if you have one.

Indeed, but I unfortunately don't have any... :( Doesn't matter, "Thyridanthrax sp maybe perspicillaris" will do it ! ;)

Thanks ! :)
