 Hello,

this rather large syrphid is from july on the slopes of a mountain in Austria. Is it Arctophila bombiformis?

Thanks,
Michael

 Hello Guenter,

thank you for your answer. I never have seen it here in the region around Cologne. It really looks like a bumblebee.

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
