Hi,

After seeing Stephan's female, I wonder if this could be the male? Taken on 22nd June 2009, it was too high to get the wings but I got two pics of which I have cropped a closer side view, giving 3 pics. Near Lincoln UK.

Not Hebecnema. Seems Helina...

Do you have a close-up of the tip of abdomen ? If sternite 5 proeminent and long haired, it could be Helina trivittata.

I can crop a closer view from the side view Stephane, that's all but I'll give it a try.

This looks a little like a pinned specimen in the gallery of Myospila meditabunda. I'm only going on looks though, I'm probably way off!Wink

I found some pics of Myospila meditabunda which look very much like my fly. I might have the female too, will post that later separately. Any opinions on that?

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
