 This hippoboscid was found today (21/06/2008) in Avintes, Portugal. Is it identifiable? It carries with him what I think are phoretic mites, or could they be parasitic?

 I think it's similar to Ornithomya sp., is that correct?

 From what I can make out it looks to be Ornithomya avicularia.

 Thank you very much for your answer PaulGrin. Is your feeling strong enough to leave it as Ornithomya cf. avicularia?

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
