Is this a sirphid? Taken in the wetland, Suarez Pond in Motril, Granada, Spain. I confuses her mouth, big and white projection.  What is the name of this insect? Thanks for your help and greetings Edited by Maherjos on 14-03-2011 22:31 |

Yes, it is a Syrphidae. Now wait for the real hoverfly lovers.

Hi, This is Neoascia podagrica, or the North-African sibbling species clausseni. Do you have more pics.. show them all please. Did you also collect it? We need the specimen to confirm it. N. clausseni is not known from Europe yet... So, go back there, collect as many as you can find and send them to me (for instance). Greetings, André Edited by Andre on 12-03-2011 19:31 |

Hello. I found only one individual, I uploaded the two best photos I could do before flying away .... If when you return to the marsh, you'll find it again, try to capture to proceed forthwith. Very grateful for your interest. Greetings |

Go back there with the beginning of the new season (starting in february) and try to find them again, and collect them, put them in 70% alcohol and send it to me  Gracias, André |

New Hi Andre. Looking insects already on the forum BIODIVERSITY VIRTUAL Spain, I see that now there are more possible bugs with the same identification in other locations of the Iberian Peninsula. Not the first, therefore, identified in Spain This is one of the links http://www.biodiversidadvirtual.org/insectarium/Neoascia+cf+podagrica+-img78397.html Edited by Maherjos on 15-11-2010 10:33 |

Hi Maherjos, The only reliable identification can only be done with the male specimen, and look at the genitalia. There is no official publication that I know about, which confirms the occurrence in Spain, though it can be expected. |
