Sorry, do you see my posted image of the fly? This is my first post and I do not yet seem to understand how it works...

Hi Katrin, it seems your image has not been accepted. The filename should not contain spaces and special characters except _ and -. Also, your photo must not be larger than 200000 bytes. (See the FAQ for more information).

Greetings, Eric

Thanks, Theo!

Could you maybe tell me how to tell it apart from Tabanus autumnalis?

Colouration of eye and shape of frontal callus (though the first suffices).
