Thank you very much. What features allow distinguishing of mines of Phytomyza ranunculi and Phytomyza ranunculivora?

The frass in ranunculi is very closely spaced, as in your image. In ranunculivora, the frass is much more widely spaced.

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
