 Hello, can someone tell which genus this limoniid belongs to? I thought the wing venation might help to tell the genus. Can this be Limonia? It was found yesterday in the Netherlands.

 Trichoceridae; Trichocera sp. Male I think.

Edit; One for Andrius.

 There should be ocelli in Trichoceridae, but I can't find them?? Eyes not hairy.

 Well, Roger, not everyone has guts to admit they were wrong Smile
It's not a trichocerid indeed, some kind of Limoniidae, but I'm not good at distinguishing those...

 Dicranomyia, most probably D. (s.str.) mitis.
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

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
