WOW!!! Try to change title to Tachinid from Malysia or something, to attract specialists. At least I think it is a Tachinid. Fly is spectacular, technically a really good picSmile

Looks like a dexiine tachinid but I don't know anyone who could reliably identify it ... nice photo though Smile

Yes, a Dexiinae, several species of Dexia itself have this facies. WIth only this one pic and no specimen, we won't get a name, I'm afraid.

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
