Here's another one of me, this time in Ilomantsi (93 N lat, 31 E long). This perticular old-growth forest is the home of Xylomya czekanowskii, Xylophagus kowarzi, Lejota ruficornis and many other lovely flies. The weather was rather cool and it was easy to catch the smaller flies directly from the tree trunks with a pooter. Kahis |

The Invisible Man. That's how he could creep up to the flies. |

lol. yeah, agree totally. The dream of a dipterologist is being invisible!!!  And the dream of knowing the "93 ?N" latitude jk.  I know you want say 63?N It happens.

Let's try again, this time with the invisibility cape off. Reaching 93 deg. N lat isn't easy but it is certainly worth the effort. PM me if you want to know how to do it....

it was a joke, Kahis... I will rewrite the sentence: it looks like you're eating moss, but you've still got a lot more to eat got it?  |

There is no such thing as 93 ?N for latitude, BUT there is a cartographic course that can be 93 ?N . Measuring since from North through the compass, we can determine the course of 93? |

18viii08, Bay of Fundy (Atlantic Ocean), NB, Canada. Heading out into a saltmarsh in search of tabanids & flies; my better side. The rubber boots a good idea, the bare knees, short-sleeved shirt and no hat, not quite so smart. Tony T attached the following image:  [156.74Kb] |
