Hello,

I found these pupae on the same Phragmites reed as I found the Sciomyzids posted in this thread. Besides Elgiva solicita I saw lots of Sepedon sphegea flies.

Could these pupae stem from one of these species?

I don't know preimaginal Sciomyzidae, but according literature I have it looks like Sepedon sphegea.

I'd say Episyrphus balteatus (Syrphidae)

Are pupaes illustrated in the new finnish Syrphidae book?

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
