All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

Probably Crumomyia fimetaria
If you look at the scutellum, Copromyza has several longish, fine setulae between the basal and apical scutellars, with Crumomyia you may get one small fine pair or with C nitida a tiny hair between the thorax and basal scutellar - using this is easier sometimes than trying to work out how many rows of postocular setae there are.

Definitely easier on photographs of living specimen.
Thanks a lot, Dave - I noted it down Smile

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
