The color pattern makes me suspect Aedes s. lat.

Not the best of specimens (Wink), but this looks a good match for Aedes aegpti

Hello Tony,

Thank you for your reaction!
This fly is in terrible state as I hit it as it was biting.
It's still full of blood.
It was not so obvious a Aedes aegypti as the other mosquito that I uploaded before.

Regards,
Hedy

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
