Hello,
Limoniidae found on the edge of the prairie pond last week in the north of France:

It might well be obscurus, although some important details of hypopygium are not clearly visible (well-developed dorsomesal projections of gonocoxites present or not; shape of dorsolateral projections) since the view is too oblique lateral
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

Okay, thanks Dmitry.
Unfortunately I lost this individual due to a manipulation error.
Cordially.
Guénael.

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
