Summary[edit] Description: Lakeside habitat, at foot of mountains The Slender-horned Horsefly Hybomitra montana is the commonest in a rather difficult genus, with twice as many records as the other three together. It is easily recognised as a horsefly from its greenish banded eyes, and as the genus by the orange patches on the abdomen, but distinguishing it from our other three species (bimaculata, distinguenda and lurida) requires a specimen, and even then is not always easy.
