Hi forum, The pictures are still wet. It looks like Phasia sp. But it doesn't resemble any of the images I can find. Anyone? Andr Edited by Andre Jas on 27-10-2006 22:48 |

Wow, Thanks Nikita, Funny though wenn I search for "Phasia" in Google hardly anything comes up (the ones at the end that do I must have overseen). And wenn I google for "Phasia aurigera" lots of them pop up?? Andr |

Now I know why I couldn't find it. It's not supposed to be in The Netherlands at all. maybe it's because I live close to Germany and does it occur there. I don't know. Does anyone? Andr |

Hi Andre. My advise is to search in Diptera.info, then, if nothing, in Google. About Ph. aurigera, for example: http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=3347&pid=14647#post_14647 Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Hi Nikita, You're right. I always try to do it too hasty, in between work. I shouldn't. For the dutch girls and guys: Is it special to have found this species in Twente? Andr |

Hi Jonafly Aurigera was only first recorded last year in NL !!! This year there has been an invasion of this magnificant fly. See previous contributions in september (Vorden, Soest). Please email me details (locality, date, ...) Thanks Theo Zeegers |

Hi Theo, I took the pictures yesterday 13/10/2006 around 14:00 PM in Ootmarsum close to the Almeloseweg on the hill called Kuiperberg. One tree there is covered with Hedera and the stuff you see in the pictures. I saw just this one male though I looked hard. Funny coincidence: my place of birth is Vorden... Andr |

Thanks, I know the place. it is very late in the year, so I'm surprised you have found one male ! I cannot tell what 'the stuff is I see in the picture'. Too much closeup. A Umbellifera (schermbloem)? Thanks Theo |

Hi, Been back today. Nothing found. Too cold? Go back tomorrow. They predict a warm day. Who knows! I think Pierre is right. It's the flowers of Hedera helix. Andr Edited by Andre Jas on 14-10-2006 18:43 |
