The attached photos were photographed on 01/08/06 in South East England.

I thought they may be male and female of the same species as they were together in a small area. However they did not appear interested in each other.Shock

Thankyou

Hi Gordon,

No, these are for the Syrphidae section.
The female is Chrysogaster solstitialis
The male is an Orthonevra

For the experts

Thankyou Theo.

One of these days I will get the hang of the family ID at least. Sad

Is someone able to move this thred for me to the Syrphidae section please.

Thanks

Gordon
