Hi! I read this post

http://diptera.in...d_id=11309

and this one

http://diptera.in...ad_id=7361

and I have reviewed my collection of photos and I found these

Are taken at the same time and place (Granada, 16Sep07) as the Volucella inanis, in fact I think that on the same plant...

Thanks!

Thanks Andre,

in the post about V. inanis I said that was a very common species, but I thought that all Volucella that I saw were the same species... Now I know they were two different species... Reviewing my photos, the common species are V. elegans (more photos) and only one photo of V. inanis...

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
