 Hi,

Can any one assist with an Id for these ? I think they may be Chironomidae but am not sure. The pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago in my garden in Surrey UK.

Many thanks Chas

 Hi Chas.
"I think they may be Chironomidae but am not sure."

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
