Phaonia valida (Harris, [1780]) | ||
One of many, very similar Phaonias which can be encountered on fine days during the late Summer and Autumn, Phaonia valida is a large species, often found sunning itself on fence posts and tree trunks late in the Summer and Autumn. There appear to be no Nottinghamshire records, but we know very little about the county's our Dipterous (Flies) fauna. Photographed at Clipstone Old Quarter in early October 2016. | ||
