Hi,

Is it possible to identify the species? Body length 4.5 mm (without proboscis). Near the road on flowering plants, in a dry meadow. Turkey, Antalya region, Kemer, Cirali, 2023.04.09. I would also appreciate it if anyone can help me get "A world review of the bee fly tribe Usiini (Diptera, Bombyliidae)" part 1 and part 2.

Thank you, Jonne. Review o f Usiini part II covers a group of pale-haired Usia. In my opinion, characters, shape of gonocoxite fits Usia lata.
