Josep, I would like to see the frontal view. The view on the backdrop is though good but the eye contact would have been beautiful. ganesh

Hola Josep Ignasi,
Una especie molt interesant, a més del que comentes el dibuix de les ales també crida molt la atenció. Bones observacions.
Ferran.

Hi Jesus,
what a capture. You took it just right, exposing its natural beauty. Hairy legs and striped thorax.
Nice moment well executed.

Regards,
Foozi

Hola Josep,

this interesting fly might be Trichopoda pennipes, the Florida sting bug tachinid. It has been introduced in Italy years ago (accidentally?) where it seems to parasitize mostly Nezara bugs. I learned the fly occurs widely in Southern Europe now. But your picture is the first one I ever saw of this astonishing fly with the strange "cepillos". I am really grateful to you that you posted the pic despite your hesitation about the ID.

My best regards to you
Dietrich
