Hi, these big Phorids were all around, so I photographed 2 and collected other 2, but I think they are all the same. Some 5 mm long. They also invaded the carSmile Mountain region.

So, I should brake off one wing, cook the animal in KOH, take one hind leg off, slide mount the animal laterally and the leg dorsoventrally?

Don't cook the wing ! Mounting the leg laterally is fine (it will lay that way naturally)...otherwise you've got it !

Not Hypocera. It is either a Triphleba or Diplonevra. A close up of the genitalia, not blocked by the legs, would let me be sure.

You'd have to use the key in Die Fliegen. Or send me the specimen and I'll identify it for you.

Are there hairs on the vein before the fork ? If so, it is autumnalis. If not, it does not seem to correspond to anything in Disney...
