 Hi, I netted plenty of these midges outside Oslo, Norway yesterday. Habitat is undergrowth close to water. Can it be ID'ed?

 May be nameable! As far as I know (but I'm ignorant in this group) there is only one Chironomid with such a band on the wing: Stenochironomus gibbus (Fabricius 1794)

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
