 Hi,
I found this one in Abomey near Cotonou. I don't know in which family I can put it!
I need your help.
Best regards

 Hi,
I saw that Rainiera a is very close too.
Could it be this genus?
Best regards

 Yes, looks like Rainiera. However, according Vol. 3 of Afrotropical manual there is Hybobata and there isn't Rainiera in Africa.

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
