Hi All

As before. Small mixed copse, river.

Although dark bodied there is enoiugh orange/yellow, evidently an Eristalis of some sort (wing loop etc).

I think I can see a stripe down the middle of the face = tenax or pertinax and I recall it being a fair size.
Pertinax has the front and mid-tarsi yellow/orange, my one is black.

So that should leave me with tenax............. I don't see any vertical row of hairs on the eyes.

Could someone take a look and help with this?

Thanks, Gareth

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
