Hello,
First of all a Happy New Year to all the Fly lovers! Smile

I hope I got it right with Dilophus febrilis!
The females had an extra shield behind the eyes and only one set of 'antennae'.
When I looked in the gallery I saw there were no pictures of the male, but some with only 'Dilophus sp.' So I suppose they must be hard to differentiate from other male sp. from only pictures.

If I'm right that these are Dilophus febrilis, then I suppose that the males in their company must be the same specie ? Wink
Then I can add one to the Gallery..

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
