 16th April this year, grassland/scrub next to freshwater lake. The genitalia seem a very good match for fugax, though it does seem to have two rather than the usual one pre-sutural acrostichal.

 All my B.fugax have 2 stronger acro. (second one bit stronger as first one)
And according to Hennig...also description with 2 strong acro.
B.fugax seems right!

 Thanks Joke. I guessed there must be some variation as everything else fitted well.

 Indeed confusing...
Key to genera of British Anthomyiidae M.Ackland :
"1 pair of strong presutural acrostichal setae followed by multiserial fine hairs on either side of suture"
I think he means that just one pair is very strong and makes no mention about the pair before.......

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
