Hi, found this male in my garden (Middle Franconia near deciduous forest) on 20190703 and I cannot find a similar one with "wasp waist"...
Any help is highly appreciated!

Thanks, Eric

Thank you very much, clovis!
Have you ever seen a similar deformation of the abdomen? Is it perhaps caused by a parsitoid?

Regards, Eric

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
