Hello,

I had thought this might be Platycheirus splendidus, I have pics of a male on two occasions on 2nd September, and one pic from 6th September.

All taken in my garden a few miles south of Lincoln UK. Old woodlands and heathlands type habitat.

3 pics of the first one (one is a crop), I should put the others on a thread of their own so I will and number them!

Headaches all round. Wink

Thanks Andre, the tarsae sections sort of looked a curved shape which was confusing. Smile

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
