 Hi guys,
First time I have found one of these with almost perfect mimicry of a type of mud wasp common to this area. About 22mm.
Anybody know this one?
All help appreciated.
regards,
Trevor

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
