A kind request to your friend: start collecting.

There is no way anybody can tell a horsefly from New Caledonia by one shot (and believe me, on this field I might be in the top three of the world !).
For one thing, because 25 % of the specimens collected turns out to be a spec.nov..

The horsefly diversity on New Caledonia is stunning !

In my opinion, the narrow flagellum and shape of the callus look like the genus Chasmia to me. New Caledonian species are put in Chasmiella by Trojan, Chasmia by Burger.

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
