 Hello everyone

I found this big fly next to a stream in south-west Germany today. I estimate the size at 18 to 20 mm. Unfortunately I could only take one picture. Is that Hermetia illucens?

Thank you for your help,
Siggi

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
