Then I suppose you are in Bolivia right now? If you have access to a computer, then you aren't in the right place! (I've been to the type locality 3 times, without success  )

(I've been to the type locality 3 times, without success )If someone pay to me the costs, I would go to there right now to find them!! And I know Spanish language. Yo se hablar un poco de espa?ol. No problemo. eheh I know that there are two German museums that have some specimens. More... I know that you tried to find this family fly in 2001. You can invite me. lol And I know that you wrote an article about this one: "One less acalyptrate family? The status of Eurychoromyiidae. Abstracts, 6th International Congress of Dipterology, Fukuoka, Japan, pp 80-81." Thank you, Steve. |

Thanks Andrjez. Yep, one day I hope to find an Eurychoromyiidae fly. I want to photograph this fly in the field! Not pinned. Find their larvae, pupa. I know nobody find both, just some imagos. The unique photo available of this fly (pinned ) from CDFA.

sorry that link is dead! We recently redid the entire website (all over the state) - I just did the part for my organization. Anyway, here is the link to the pic: http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/phpps/ppd/entomology/images/diptera/eurmalle.jpg One of my favorite flies! |

Jorge - when you go on your Bolivian expedition can I be your research assistant and carry your nets? I will travel light ... just essentials for any trip - my own nets, boxes, malaise trap, alcohol  |
