Nominated by	Alvesgaspar (talk on 2009-04-22 20:47 (UTC)
Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Platynochaetus setosus, male
Used in	Global usage
Reason	A quite uncommon hoverfly, hard to find both in the field and the web. The antennae of the males have an unusual shape. As far as I know this is the only picture in Commons. Though it is probably a P. setosus, the ID is not sure. -- Alvesgaspar (talk
Review (criteria)	Previous reviews  Info Back to the forum after the species has been identified and the scope changed accordingly.
