do not disturb him, because it is a copulating male of a fly from a Baltic beach (a Beach Boy!) But what is an arrowed structure looking somewhat like an additional haltere? And is it Anthomyiidae at all?

Looks like a calypter to me - just a very hairy one Smile

Yes, Marek, calypter is somewhat rumple, but as regarding the serios process your flies are currently involved, well, it comes sometimes during this process Grin
Anthomyiidae is correct, genus Fucellia

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
