On my wall. Looks like a male of the Simuliidae family.

Minas de Riotinto, February 21, 2022.

Is it possible to reach genus level? Smile

Simulium, by far the most speciose genus. I often see other genera, but European diptera.info contributors do not.

Thanks, John! TumbsUp

Happy with its genus, even if it's by far the most speciose. Real beauties.

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
