Thank you Jorge and Cranefly for your reactions to this nice fly. I put another picture of this unfortunate Scatella paludum to see that this is a man.

Regards,
Hedy

Sorry, but this identification needs correction. On the second photo I see greenish metallic shining abdomen. If it is one and the same fly on the two photoes, then 2 fr-or setae from the first photo + metallic abdomen = Setacera sp., male, can be determined to species from genitalia only.awkward

Hello Cranefly,

Yes, this is the same greenish fly, so thank you very much for the Setacera spec.!!

Hedy

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
