Goodmornig,

In May 2015, I spotted this Syrphidae just north of Tochni, a little village in the Larnaca District, Cyprus.
Tochni is located inland, approx 8 km´s from Cyprus south coast, on the southeastern foothills of the Troodos Mountains.

I have been trying to figure out which species I´m dealing with, but somehow I don´t succeed.

Is there someone around who can give me a push in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,

Bert

Goodmorning John,

Thanks for your reply. So I have been looking in the wrong direction. Time for some new research.

Regards,

Bert

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
