 Hi,

one of the most beautiful flies I have ever seen, but no idea what it might be. The specimen was collected in New Mexico, US.

 After looking more closely I have doubts. The antennae may be too short. Can you confirm with the keys to genus and species in the reference I cited? It is available here: https://sites.goo...references.

 Oedopa ascriptiva Hendel. Known to me from Colorado. Genal setulae are clearly black.

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
