hello,
I found this fly today, 20-06...
At first I thought it was an easy ID because of the dominant four white spots on the thorax, but since I've noticed that it barely has any dorsal setae, I must admit that I don't have a clue..even which family it belongs to.
Anthomyiidae would be my first guess, but....
any help is very welcome
thanks in advance... Chris

It will depend on the sex of the specimen, the age of the specimen, and local variation as well. Yours does seem to be a well-marked individual, but within the species range I would say. Of course the photography (lighting, exposure, camera settings) will make a big difference too!

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
