If the arista is feathery, Mycophaga. If the arista is bare, Pegomya (so I believe).

Thank you, James! On other pictures the arista seems bare.

Feathery is maybe misleading. You have to get very close to see the arista on Mycophaga clearly. I attach one of my own photos where you can see how difficult it can be.

This one was taken with a Raynox converter on the front of my Canon macro lens - and on a tripod. If you go looking for the flies in the early morning - before they have warmed up properly - you can sometimes get surprisingly close to take photos such as this one.

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
