Rhinophoridae family? Not sure!

Any clues about genus?

Taken today in a farm. Silgueiros - Viseu - PORTUGAL.

My first impression, which is often but not always the best, was that of the Dexiini (Tachinidae). The wing venation is quite peculiar: a long appendix to bend of vein M and the topcel apparently closed or even stalked. This suggests Estheria.

Not sure though, need to see the head.

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
