Hi Karsten, from what I can see, it looks good for G. nitens:
- m-cu much steeper than the post-angular vein (not parallel)
- the petiole of R5 ends in the wing tip (T&H key).
But it should be only 2-4 mm long.


Greetings, Eric Kloeckner

It was indeed tiny. In memory, I tend to overestimate the size once I have cropped photos... ;-)

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
