Paul, is this not a O. morrisii? A pity I cannot compare it with specimens in my collection
#4
I only have really my doubts because of its legs. Has only the 3rd femur a black spot?

A couple of days ago I could shot again I think the same species at the same place (4 years later), could you confirm...
P
: collected and gave it to Jorge who was with me...

I will spend about a week at this small village for holidays so I will try to collect it for you...
You need O. morrissi only or germanica and pardalina (https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=24087) also?
You're also wellcome to visit us, it is 1500 mts and very fresh in augoust...
