 Hello,

I photographed this fly in the Lecceta di Torino di Sangro Nature Reserve (CH), Italy, 50m a.s.l. on May 21st 2023. It looks like a Rhinophoridae to me, but I'm not totally sure.Could you please help me to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

 Note the strong setulae on costa basal of subcosta ending: Oplisa tergestina.

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
