Hi Robert,

This is a female (if the lower two are the same specimen!) of Xyphosia miliaria, with veery little reticulation in between the spots, which is quite unusual.

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
