 Could be E. megacephalus?

9th June 2008. M?laga, south Spain. In a garden, in Santolina flowers. Size: the normal in Eristalinus, more or less 8-9 mm.

 At least E. megacephalus with striped eyes in the South also. But I don't know if are more... I know four Iberian species in this genus and could be more.

 Eristalinus taeniops female.
It's the only one who has striped eyes in Europe. The other species all have spotted eyes, including E. megacephalus. There's a picture of megacephalus in the gallery!

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
