 Hi Theo,

Yes, I found this fly in my garden today. A beautiful animal and only moderately timid.
Let's wait for the answer from Jens-Hermann.

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
