European cave spider (kllarspindel; Arachnida: Araneae: Tetragnathidae: Meta menardi) is but one of several inhabitants of the small cave Tuppstensgrottan. Visited during the Conference on Granite Caves CGC2011.
This is an odd little syrphid, Copestylum sp., that I only see occasionally. At a distance, it resembles a bluebottle fly, so perhaps I have missed it in the past. It was very interested in Ruellia in my garden. HFDF!Update: identified on BugGuide as a member of the C. vesicularium species group. Update-2: ID as Copestylum vesicularium - Iridescent Bromeliad Flybugguide.net/node/view/311441See images at:bugguide.net/node/view/1095356/
