seen in Panama in January. I think this fly looks a lot like this one https://www.flick...6906402027 but it isn't identified. I agree with the observer that it's not a Smeryngolaphria, is it possible to say what genus it is?

thank you,
Jeremy

Your Panama fly is a Smeryngolaphria (S. numitor), and it is the same as the fly on Flicker you referenced (both are females). Smeryngolaphria numitor is quite distinctive in appearance from the several other spp. in this genus (much more elongate--with long, slender legs, etc.).

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
