 Hello!

Are these 4 mm larvae also from Mycetophilidae? Together with many Proteinus ovalis beetles and larvae (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) in a mushroom in our garden (northwest Germany) on first Christmas day.

 Did you ever tried to see it in obscurity?
Does it glow?

No. I had read of that, but I thought that phenomenon would only occur in some tropical species?!?
Best regards,

 Keroplatidae glowing species can be found from Portugal to Scandinavia.
Seemingly more genus does show glow display, like Platyura (Orfelia),etc... Smile

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
