 I came across this big (15-20mm body) fly(?) on the west coast of Norway (Hordaland) in mid August. I think its a fly, although it might be a wasp..? Anyone recognize it?

 Actually, the hairs on anterior part of thorax are black, so it should be Laphria ephippium.

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
