Hi,

is there any chance to get to know the family of this pupa without raising it (if it is a dipteran at all...)?

Many thanks in advance!

Lennart

2015-03-20, Germany, S-H, Mohrkirch, found while digging under an alder, a few cm underground. Length 16 mm.

My impression is hymenopteran, but try to rear it.

This appears to be a pupa of Bibionidae. The superposed leg sheaths and short antennae are pretty distinctive in combination with the Nematoceran tucked head.

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
