 Dear all,

on 12th of June 2020 I found this fly on a fence in north Berlin, Germany. Did I identify it correctly as Platystoma lugubre?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Best regards,
Adrian

 Here is a picture of the habitat. I found it sitting on the fence around a deserted building area.

 Red basitarsi should make it P. lugubre. P. seminationis has completely black feet.
BTW, nice to hear from you after a long time. Regards, Sundew

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
