I believe this is Tachinidae. Can anyone suggest a subfamily? Malaise trap, Townsville.

On my planet, this would be Chaetogena.

I just checked: on your planet, it is Chaetogena as well (as Stomatomyia in Crosskey).
You have two: acuminata (also ours) and tricholygoides.

Checking ALA Chaetogena is not listed but Chetogena micropalpis is listed. I'm confused. Are Chaetogena and Chetogena synonyms?
How did you check?

Under the code of zoological nomenclature "Chaet-" and "Chet-" are homonyms. The correct spelling is whichever was used first, in this case Chetogena.

This depends on your defintion of ' correct'.

According to the lawyers of the Code, the correct spelling is Chet-, indeed.

However, the really correct spelling, it is Latin, after all, is ' Chaet-' .

As i have explained before, I am in the habit of correcting Rondani's spelling mistakes. I think it is unscientific not to.

Everybody can feel free to disagree and take the other choice, I want condemn those.

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
