I was lucky to catch this female just when it was laying eggs. Anyone can help to identify ? Photographed on 30 April 2012, Southern Bohemia, Czech Republic.

Thank you.

F. ruficornis fits better (reddish arista).

I am not familiar with the species, hence the caution I put in using the '?'. Wink

I agree that this seems to be F. ruficornis.
