 Photographed very recently in a rice field in Zhejiang China. Around 5mm in body length. Is it something near Gymnopternus (or Hercostomus)? Thanks!

 The apical arista is rare in subfamily Dolichopodinae.

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
