Hello,

I photographed this fly in the Valle dell'Orta Nature Reserve (PE), Italy, 300m a.s.l. on August 2nd 2021. I think it is a Muscidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

I agree. Looking at shortened second post dc should be L. maculosa but here I'm not sure.

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
