Nice! Mallota cimbiciformis would be my idea. How many did you find?

I collected five larvas but only four gave an imago (two males and two females).
With the key StN, I find Mallota dusmeti, thus new for France.
At the end of May, I see Martin Speight. I hope that he will confirm my identification.

Martin identified Mallota eurasiatica. A very big surprise because present only in Greece and Ukraine.

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
