Hello,
Is an ID possible for this Tachinid? At first I thought it might be Phorocera obscura, but the more I look at it, the less sure I am (the abdomen seems a little less elongated, and the distal part of M1 seems less curved than is the case with Phorocera)...

Pictures taken May 23rd in a residential area in Nieuwegein, The Netherlands

Thanks in advance,

Reindert van Eekelen

Bend in vein M well spotted, Reindert ! Its shape is typical for the tribe Blondeliini. General impression is that of a male Meigenia and the erect apical scutellar bristles confirm this. Alas, genitalia needed for species level.

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
