Hi!

I found this couple of 4-5 mm flies at a slope near the forest (northwest Germany). The male was permanently buzzing with its wings. Also conspicious, the white spots at its abdomen sides.

Miltogramminae species indeed.

It is Metopia. I think this should be M. argentata, formerly known as M. roserii.

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
