Hair on the legs - Empis sp.?
Maik Hausotte
Hello,
is this Fly from today (Saxony) a Empis species?
Thanks for your help,
Maik

Empis it is (try the key to the genera by Hackston https://www.dipte...(2015).pdf!), but the pictures show too few details.
I think I saw the same species recently and now posted it here https://diptera.i...d_id=95084. Though my pictures are better they might still be insufficient, I am afraid. If Paul is able to name a group or even a species, you are invited to participate in the name!
Regards, Sundew

Compare with Empis nuntia

Fantastic (Empis cf. nuntia)! Thank you very much for the help. Best regards, Maik

So our two females belong both to the Empis nigripes complex but are different species. Now I recognize a difference: the legs of your flies are brownish, mine has black ones. Well, Paul is the best!
