Hello everyone,

A small species that I identified as Leptogaster pulicornis using the book by van den Borek and A. Schulten.

But I am not sure.

The insect was collected in the south-east of France near Lyon, (Loire-sur-Rhône) on June 25, 2021.
Size: 8mm

Thank you for your help !
Benoît

Shape of hypopygium looks more like that of L. cylindrica: http://www.robberflies.info/keyger/images/800/Leptogastrinae/Leptogaster/cylindrica_m2_07_COGG.jpg
Still not very confident about my ID's of Leptogaster. To be sure, the third (postpedicel) antennal segment should be pubescent in L. pubicornis

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
