Hello !

Aywaille (Belgium), 23/6/2019, on oak bark.
Obviously no black mark between the antennas (bottom right).
So, Peplomyza discoidea ? If yes, it could be a new species for Belgium (according to Fauna Europae, but is it updated ?).

In 2001 a fly collected from a window of the Canadian National Collection became the type specimen of a new species (Anthomyia ottawana).

The chances for that are somewhat smaller here, at least among most fly families, but we might have a chance in phorids, cecidomyiids and sciarids, I guess. P. discoidea is just one among a dozen or so species that have their first record (or one of the first records upon publication) from the window in our museum.

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
