Hello again,

This was a little bigger than most Sphaeroceridae I have, maybe 5-6mm. I only got one pic, could it be Copromyza nigrina? The very black colour is the reason for my thinking Wink, and it looks like a Copromyza sp. to me.

Taken on 5th November 2009 near Lincoln UK.

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
