 Hi tipulid gurus
I'd be grateful for identification suggestions. This tipulid larva has cropped up at several stream sites in the upper North Island of New Zealand. The abdomen has creeping welts like our Limoniinae craneflies Aphrophila or Limonia, but the pictured spiracular disc is quite different to these genera. Any suggestions?
P.S. rearing isn't an option - all specimens were preserved when found.
Thanks
Stephen

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
