Tachinid #1 from 03.04.21 --> Siphona maculata group
Juergen Peters
Hello,

many Kirbya moerens here the last few days, but two Tachinidae from today I only noticed at home at the PC on pictures of other insects. So no good pictures...

This one visited sloe blossoms next to a Bombylius major (northwest Germany).

Many Kirbya ?? We still have only one !

In any case, this Tachinidae is a Siphona in the maculata-complex, impossible to say which one.

I don't mean several Kirbya species, but several individuals in the last weeks/days Wink. But I still wait for better photos... (see below). In former years I rarely found more than one or two Kirbya moerens a season, in some years not one at all.

In any case, this Tachinidae is a Siphona in the maculata-complex, impossible to say which one.


Thanks! I thought of Siphona, but I never saw one this early in spring. Earliest find until now was April-25. Mostly they occur in early May.
