 Thank you very much!
But there is still another question. If two flies encounter they show a (for me) strange behaviour. Is this a threat or something like a mating foreplay?
Please have a look here:

 The first part of the clip shows a male, probably showing territorial behaviour. The last part shows a female, possible (also) looking for oviposition sites.

 Paul, are you speaking about the first (preview with one individual) or the second video (preview with two individuals)?

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
