Phaonia subventa
Found in early April 2011 at Sherwood Forest CP, this male Phaonia subventa was only the NNR's second record, despite being a common species. Phaonia subventa is one of several similarly coloured species. Phaonia species show a distinctive bulge to the outer edge of the wing, which helps distinguish them from other flies.
