This ''Empis opaca'' seems to have two proboscis: one long (the "normal" one) and one shorter with some kind of ramification at the tip. What is this?

I have this other picture where the two "beaks" appear close to each other. Could it be that there is some part coming out from the proboscis? I'm really puzzled with this. (I realize now yesterday was the 1st of April, but this nothing to do with it!)

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
