 I have followed the key published in the Royal Entomological Society book dedicated to Chironomidae (Vol. IX part 2). The coloration of the abdomen leads me to Cricotopus trifasciatus : segments 1, 4, 7 mainly yellow, middle scutal stripe abbreviated, femora yellow with black tips, white tibial bands very broad. Do you think this ID is correct ?

 Cricotopus (Isocladius), could be Cricotopus sylvestris.

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
