Hi, This fly from Berlin (14 October 2016) is puzzling me. Unfortunately, it stayed just for a few lateral pictures and then flew off. It should be a member of Dexiinae. Its arista is hairy. Is it possible to find out a genus? Thanks in advance, Sundew Edited by Sundew on 19-03-2020 20:01 |

Well spotted, but not all Tachinids with plumose arista are Dexiini. It is the female of Thelaira solivaga. Pretty late, for this species ! Theo |

Fine! Up to now T. nigripes was the only kown Thelaira species for Berlin and Brandenburg. So I shall add it to our species list https://www.orion...liegen.php. Many thanks! PS. OK, tribe is Voriini, but it belongs to subfamily Dexiinae - so I was right
