Hi,
I am still searching for a Brachicoma, and yesterday I saw this fly that looked rather good - at least the arista is not hairy, which points to Paramacronychiinae. The key by Whitmore et al. (2020) contains only Brachicoma devia, but in Germany there is also B. papei, and I don't know how to discriminate between the two. I show you some pictures, but are they identifiable? Sarcs are so tricky...
The locality was southwestern Germany (50 km west of Stuttgart), the fly was sitting on a hedgerow.
Thanks in advance for any comments, Sundew

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
