 A little asilidae photographed on 02/05/2016, Galicia (Spain).
I think it's a male Dysmachus. I think it's complicated to ID but It may "sound the flute". Thanks.
Regards,
Luis Álvarez

 Hello Reinoud,
Thank you very much.
My apologies. Is a Spanish expression but I do not know if has the same meaning in English. I guess it does not. I am sorry.
Very close to this male I also photographed a female. She seemed very similar to the female of my previous post and because of it I said "to sound the flute".
Best regards,
Luis

 podría sonar la flauta might translate as "I might be lucky"?

 Hello Guenter,
Yes, that's what I meant.
Best regards,

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
