Can anyone help me? Wink

Inside it is clarified: this is a composite of Tipula maxima (head), Rhagio scolopaceus (thorax), Cylindromyia brassicara (abdomen), Bibio marci (forelegs), Asilus crabroniformis (midlegs) and Micropeza corrigiolata (hindlegs). Personally, I think it's ugly (and pointless)

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
