Hello to all!
Is there anything to mix this lovely fly up with? It was on top of a mountain as high as 2289m, so there were no deers close, only chamoises perhaps.
Size approx. 15mm

11.7.2010, Austria, Salzburg, Tennengebirge, Mt. Scheiblingkogel

If there was ever a fly that would appeal to the public - this must be it!! I really want one for Christmas!Wink
And I'd agree that this is stimulator. The host is Capreolus - Roe Deer. It has been recorded at over 2200 meters, and this one may be "hill-topping" - so higher than its hosts.

Thank you both!
Here's a picture of the place where I found it. It was the pile of stones in the front part of the pic.

Yes, and although exhausting, I can very well understand the flies and butterflies who love to do this, too. Grin

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
