Correct. PLease submit second picture for Gallery. The row of ctenidia on the fore femur is well visible in that picture.

Collins description of "Acrostichal bristles on thorax irregularly quadriserial with
those of two middle rows longer." fits nicely too

Thanks for confirming Paul. I cropped second picture to show the row of small setae, didn't know they were called ctenidia (you live and learn). I'll stick Pic.2 in the Gallery.

True, but just to clarify: this is not a characteristic of this species only, but is shared with other species of Meiosimyza and also the species of Aulagastromyia and Tricholauxania. Under most circumstances it is hence very useful to see that a specimen belongs to Meiosimyza and not, for example, Sapromyza.

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
