 A 7mm tachinid from a woodland/heathland site in Yorkshire UK, 24th April 2022. I am struggling to key it out...I am wondering whether the genae have collapsed in a bit? Grateful for any suggestions as to genus/species.

Calliphoridae have bare eyes. In the Oestroidea of Europe and North America, only some Tachinidae have hairy eyes.

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
