What do you mean by "close to"? Do you mean it could be, but you're not sure?

It is Chironomus or a related genus. "Close" means a close evolutionary relationship. There is a group within tribe Chironomini where males have 13 or fewer flagellomeres instead of the usual 15. That group is further divided into the "Chironomus group" with normally developed appendages between the main claspers of male genitalia, and the "Harnischia complex" where those appendages are reduced.

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
