This specimen was attracted to a mercury lamp 2:15 AM in a mature deciduous forest 14m asl in SE Norway 14th September 2014. I think this belongs to falleni when studying (according to Chandler, 1994) the general impression (pale abdomen (with brown bands), brown knobs on the halteres and enlarged tibia and first tarsomere of the hind leg) in addition to the setas of the first tarsomere of mid leg and tibia I-II. I would very much like a confirmation as this will constitute the first record for Norway. The specimen was not collected.

Help appreciated as always!

Cheers Jørn

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
