Saropogon atricolor m. 1546 - a photo on Flickriver

            This species is known from a single male specimen from Rhodes (Rhodos), described by H. Loew in 1857. So, this seems to be the first (recognised) specimen after more than 150 years :) (The fly was sitting in a deep shade, and I didn't dare use the "untamed" flash, whence the shallow DOF :()
