A spring species. Jizz similar to a Linnaemya, but head profile is different.

Looks very like a sarcophagid (long body, grey chequered dusting on abdomen, big pulvilli) but it is a tachinid, which might suggest something like Phorocera ... but I'll wait for Theo on this one Smile

That's my thought as well, Phorocera or maybe Parasetigena.
Can't tell the number of DC.
My gut feeling tells my Parasetigena.

Parasetigena it must be, becasue it was a large species.

Also looking through my P. images it appears to me, that a good jizz feature is that in P. the head and the body is often separated by a wide fluffy area formed by white occipital hair. This species looks like a spanish or dutch nobleman with the broad white collars fashionable in the 16th centrury.

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
