 I just found out that I had another acrocerid kept in a box. I don't remenber when I discovered it but I know that it was in a pond dead.
I don't know if its appearence is the right one or if it suffered some damage because of the water.

What species does this belongs to?
Thanks

 Astomella curviventris ???? Frown Shock See here:
http://www.faunedefrance.org/bibliotheque/docs/E.SEGUY(FdeFr13)Dipteres.pdf

but A. curviventris is a synonym for A. hispaniae... and this is very different to another Astomella... awkward (maybe a species with strong sexual dimorphism.)

venation is typical for A. curviventris!!! Where did you spot this??? in the same place of another Astomella? Frown

Fabulous!! I'm in awe!

 Dr. Evert Schlinger agrees with Astomella too. Grin But for species it is needed the specimen.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
