 Fannia pusio is not listed on ALA, which I find strange because I gather it has global occurrence. Could it be listed under another name?

 It may not have been recorded. The regional catalog, http://hbs.bishop...iidae.html, lists pusio from many Pacific islands but not Australia. It gives glabella Bezzi as a regional synonym.

 Thanks John. glabella is not listed either. Looks like it simply hasn't been recorded.

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
