Hi


* locality - Silgueiros - Viseu - PORTUGAL
* date - 2007.08.14
* size - 6 mm (medium fly)
* habitat - openland
* substrate - on sand

Anastoechus sp. ? or... Systoechus sp. I wish to know the difference.


Sorry for really very bad and blurry photo.

EDIT ----> Title changed from "Bombyliidae" to "Bombyliidae - Systoechus sp. ?"

why not Anastoechus? This is my doubt. How we can really distinguish between these 2 genera? Thank you a lot, David! Smile

Then I will send Pipunculidae specimens very soon.
