 I'd appreciate corroboration or correction on this Empis. Year after year, it is the main pollinator of the early-blooming Allium roseum in the Sierra de Cazorla mountains, southeastern Spain, providing one of the very few instances known to me of strong dependence of one plant on an Empidid fly for pollination.

Length ~7.5 mm

Sierra de Cazorla (Jaén province, southeastern Spain), 23 May 2016, 800 m a.s.l.

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
