Fly near a compost heap. Satzvey, Eifel (West Germany), 30th April 2020. Could it be Hydrophoria linogrisea (Anthomyzidae)?

Hello,

I think, Phaonia (tuguriorum?).

(And Hydrophoria would not be Anthomyzidae, but Anthomyiidae).
Best regards,
Jürgen

Hi Jürgen,
your comment made me think – and check the file details of the original images. According to the file information the pictures were actually taken on September 6, 2021, which fits in perfectly with your observations. The date I entered was that listed on the caption of the images, I don’t know how the wrong date got there. Sorry for the confusion! It looks like your justified question mark can now be removed.

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
