Good morning,

I collected this fly near deer droppings, mistakenly thinking that it was the same one that I had photographed on site and that I have already presented here. Here we have a Limosininae with two pairs of bristles on the scutellum, a ventral bristle on basitarsus 2, an apical ventral bristle on tibia 2 and R2+3 is shaded. Do you have any idea about his identity? Cordially thank you very much.

What about Spelobia rufilabris ?
It seems to match perfectly between the venation and the chaetotaxy on the tibia 2
Or Spelobia clunipes ?

Probably Spelobia but not enough detail for a species ID; with a specimen no problem. Also S. rufilabris has an orange/yellow face and gena (to varying degrees) and if this one has, there are still two other externally similar species.

Thank you very mouche, it seems not to have yellow face and gena, but I can't verify. I've stupidly lost this specimen. Perhaps clunipes or palmata... Spelobia sp !

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
