 Hi,

I'm pretty sure from the orange on the third pair of legs that this is D. oelandica but would appreciate confirmation. Besides it is such a handsome fly I thought I'd share it. seen in our garden in mid-Wales.

Edit to link to picture as I'm having attachment failure.

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
