It is the first record from Slovakia and the second from Europe. I was going to publish a short key to 3 or four species recorded in Europe.

Apparently the keys of Curran in 1930s were the most recent

If you like, we can join your record with my data and a key in the same paper.

Find my e-mail in the mentioned paper.

That is what I warn people about when they post images hosted on external servers. Most often when I encounter a thread that has no image(s) anymore I delete it. Be warned!

As I cannot post OR include photo's anymore the three links above (euh, now it works... awkward).

Is this Euxesta notata?

The specimens are from a appleorchard 31-10-2017 Monheurt, France

The photos added 11-06-2018 08:53 (U.S. time) can be called Euxesta notata. The only doubt is, somebody should revise the group notata+pechumani+anna to make sure the color characters are reliable. Of those three species as currently understood, only notata has a female with yellow-tipped adbdomen.

So, this is the third European record now.

Hi John & Nosferatumyia,

Thanks for the confirmation. I will publish the record together with three other new Diptera species to France. I will include a photo of the male genitalia.

Kind regards,

Ectemnius

In some Tephritoidea, the female oviscape and aculeus also have taxonomic value.
