 Hello to all!
Is there an ID possible and what kind of cancer or whatever has it on its head? About 12-14mm long.

 Thanks Ruud, so no sickness...
I thought the Ptilinum is retracted before the fly starts flying around going for a meal. Seems I've been wrong...

Could the species be Conops flavipes?

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
