an other specimen found also in a moor.
Spot on tergites 3 to 6.
First antennal segment long with a small constriction, black-grey.
Femora orange/ brown (exactly as bigoti).
Is it ok for italica ?

I have a doubt with this one, could it be gallica ? The first segment is not so long as italica in direct comparaison with the other specimen in my other post. (And I found two specimens of gallica in our pro collection, identified by M. Portillo, same area, North western France)

Gallica is just a synonym of italica, it is a "ghost species"

And yes, very nice female italica. In doubt, colouration of femora is a big clue (otherwise only found in bigoti, very different, and grandis)

Thanks Theo !
Where can I find the publication where gallica and italica are synonymized ? For my information and for actualisation of national liste.

As I recall, it was a publication by Wolfgang Schacht, but I cannot find it 1-2-3.
In any case, given as synonym by Portillo for Iberian peninsula.

It was in an appendix, therefore difficult to find Sad

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
