Hi Jorge - this is a great start -  I have a couple of corrections, though -  You have the anepisternum coloured yellow and numbered "3" (confusion with posterior spiracle) The notopleuron (your number 16) usually refers to just the triangular area with two large bristles at the "base" of the suture - i.e. just the bit above the anepisternum. The area infront and behind it are just lateral areas of the scutum. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Jorge, The colours are very useful. It's good to also see the original photo, without the added colours. As Tony I says - this is a great start. This will be a very useful resource.

Thank you a lot, Tony. I will fix it right now. The numbers were repeated. Thank you, Nigel.

Am I right that 7.postpronotum = humeri |

In Asilidae: postpronotal lobe, pprn lb; humerus (pl. humeri); humeral callus [1]; postpronotum [7]; humeral callus = posterior area of posterior pronotum [8] your humeri is the postpronotal lobe in Asilidae for example. Usually the humeral callus (=humerus - in singular) in Tachinidae (and others) refers to the postpronotum. Remember that humeri is the plural of humerus. |
