 Tschorsnig´s key says: "Legs totally yellow". There are numerous Dexiosoma caninum where I live, none of them have totally yellow legs. At least tarsus is dark brownish. Is the key wrong or am I thinking wrong?

 You are right. There is a weird tendency to say 'legs' when 'femora and tibiae' are meant.
Yellow femora are generally uncommon in Tachinidae.

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
