Sorry for the previous misspelling.

Portschinsky is a Oekrainian name, therefore written with -y ending.
In Polish, it would have been -i.
And then there is always the sh/sch matter.

This spelling gets you hits !

Anyway, our special guest start, introducing to you;

Portschinskia loewi (Oestridae: Hypodermatidae).

23 mm in size, mind you !!
