Hello!

I think they are Sphaeroderma testaceum, Chrysomelidae/Alticinae.
Best regards,
Jürgen

Chrysomelidae Alticinae

Why not Neocrepidoptera ferruginea?

Maybe. I don't know that genus from here, so it did not come into my mind.
Best regards,
Jürgen

I think they are too parallel-sided for Sphaeroderma. I would plump for Crepidodera sp. but would need to have them under the microscope to go to species. Maybe Crepidodera is an old name for Neocrepidoptera?

Hello,

The correct genus is Neocrepidodera, not Neocrepidoptera.

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
