Hi Nikita and Theo,

Can the black backstripe tell whether it is fera or magnicornis?

Tachina fera - black stroke walks from broad to thin -(seen from head to back)

robert,

Oke, that suggests fera. This feature is, however, variable, as are all others.
Also use: colour of tarsi, colour of hairs on gena and parafacialia, shape and colour of third antennal segment.
Most of these suggest fera, in your case

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
