 This poor fly was attacked by a fungus. I think it belongs to the family Anthomyidae. Is that correct? Is it possible to go beyond family level?

 Anthomyiidae with Entomophthora muscae.

 Thank youSmile. Is it possible to go any further, despite the fly being damage?
Paul, in these cases of flies infected by fungi is it always E. muscae, or could it be another species of Entomophtora?

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
