 Hello,

Pierre Duhem : France : Saint-Sornin : 17600 : 29/06/2022

I knew that the fore legs are sensitive organs, but never had the occasion to see that they are indeed hairy.
Can somebody say something about this criter?
Thanks in advance.

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
