 Attractive flies in a rich forest ravine, West Virginia, USA, 5.6 mm long. 17 May 2012.

Heleomyzidae? The yellow pubescence makes me think of Scathophagidae.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

Dr Michael von Tschirnhaus, a leading expert on Chloropidae and Agromyzidae, died on 16 September 2025 at the age of 86. He will be greatly missed by the international community. R.I.P.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
