Hello,
is this fly with the triangular tooth at the hind femur a female Tropidia scita? I found the fly on a white rose in Saxony in Germany in the mid of May.
Thank, you,
Marion

as no expert has answered, yet, I would say yes, beyond doubt. I had found this species only three times here, lastly this May (but the male below is from May 2014).

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
