Hello,

I photographed this fly in Campo Imperatore (AQ), Italy, 1800m a.s.l. on July 14th 2019. I think it is a Tipulidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Genus and subgenus is quite easy, but a female in Italy...
Tipula (Lunatipula) sp.
Anyway, if you wan't to collect some in alcohol, I'd be happy to identify some Smile

Thank you so much! I usually don't collect specimens, but I'll try to catch some if I manage to find them again, I've always been curious about the identity of these mountain species.

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
