Hi,

I took a picture of a medium-sized fly on a leaf close to our garden hedge.

Could that be a Calliphoridae? The "golden" back reminds me of Pollenia rudis or similar.

Germany, Southern Bavaria, Munich (-West), 22.10.2021, app. 8-10 mm

Greetings, Uli

Hi Uli, female Pollenia is correct.

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
