Hello!

Could anyone give me some indications about the genera of this voracious prdator? This one is often observed in my garden, Hungary.
10-12 mm long.

Hi Tomi,

Looks to me Machimus, possibly Machimus cingulatus but that should be confirmed/corrected by more experienced members. The prey is Pollenia spec.
Thanks for your attention

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
