I suppose the legend is
T Tenerife
G Gran Canaria
P La Palma
L Lanzarote
F Fuerteventura
G La Gomera

And yes, new to Tenerife. Not really a surprise. Indeed Cephalodromia is very widespread than one could imagine.

Just to add:
The Cephalodromia was not known for mailand Spain until Javier got some nice photos of this genus. (maybe others could have photos of these, very probably). At least, before 2002 Cephalodromia is not officialy cited for mainland Spain.

Thanks, yes, legend is like that, only C means Gran Canaria and G La Gomera and H is El Hierro. I try to consult this fly with prof. Baez. Michal

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
