Hello,

this female was much smaller than the usual Cheilosia albitarsis/ranunculi, only ~7 mm. On a meadow near rivulet (northwest Germany).

Hi,

My guess would be M. nuda. For the other possible species (aerosa/hirtella), you would expect some sort of hair on the thorax, which looks very bare to me.

Best, Jonne

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
