This is a blood-sucking fly (Hyppoboscidae)
Here it is written about them in sufficient detail:

It's definitely a bloodsucking fly, probably some kind of bird. It can live in the nests of pigeons, jackdaws, etc. Apparently from there and got to the balcony. You can fight by eliminating nests on and near the balcony.

PUSH! wink.gif

this one is hard to crush!
they are like fleas-flat and strong smile.gif

You can easily kill a bloodsucker with a hammer. But it is not necessary to offend the nests of birds.

30.05.2006 21:59, RippeR

you can throw them in the stain and then straighten them out.
Yes, and it is difficult to push, but YOU CAN! smile.gif

Oh, they're very fast, these things. I remember a friend of mine, an ornithologist, collected a whole jar, so it was only necessary to open it a little, as they immediately flew away. They sit on the hair / feathers and instantly burrow. So immediately push. And in general, amazing flies!

This is, of course, the ktyr family Asilidae, apparently the genus Laphria.
Here is the link to the cartoon http://www.geller-grimm.de/general.htm (in English robber-flies, i.e. robber flies)

08.06.2006 23:30, Shofffer

Definitely Laphria, possibly Laphria gibbosa.

smile.gifThis is also a tahina, which looks like Tachina fera (larvae - parasites of butterfly caterpillars). Although there are many similar types.

mmm... here's what google found for diophthalmus

http://www.gardenia-helsinki.fi/Viikinluon...diophthalma.jpg

not too similar in color, but the proportions, appearance are similar

18.07.2006 23:45, Sparrow

About ... colleagues with Diptera.info they suggest that this
is Temnostoma vespiforme

http://insektenfotos.de/Temnostoma%20vespi...ennchen_003.jpg

Bad Den thank you, if the search for Spilomy would not have asked on the diptera forum would not have climbed))) it looks like it's Temnostoma vespiforme

19.07.2006 8:55, Bad Den

It's a fly. Apparently, from sem. Babblers (Syrphidae).

Yes, it's a murmur. This is Eristalodes taeniops, a relative of our common Latyrophthalmus.In the former USSR, it is found, for example, in Transcaucasia.

Please help me determine. The picture says that this is a shlelevidka.

Yes, a bumblebee fly (Volucella sp., most likely Volucella bombylans) from the family of Babblers (Syrphidae).

Found. It turns out that this is a fairly widespread insect: Insects / Flies and mosquitoes / Butterflies /Insecta / Diptera / Psychodidae /
Family of BUTTERFLIES (Psychodidae) Very peculiar small mosquitoes, characterized by a densely hairy body and wide shaggy wings with a dense network of longitudinal veins.
Can someone tell me the gender?

10.12.2006 15:13, Shofffer

Surely this is Psychoda phalaenoides L.
IMHO there is simply no one else to be.
