Thank you

Nephrocerus. I do not have my key at hand to tell you which one.

Is this the reference that can be used?
Grootaert, P. & De Meyer, M. (1986): On the taxonomy and ecology of Nephrocerus Zetterstedt (Diptera, Pipunculidae) with a redescription of N. lapponicus and a key to the European species.- Bulletin van het Koninklijk Belgisch Instituut voor Natuurwetenschappen, Entomologie 56: 85-91.


Thank you!

With the absence of markings on the tergites 2-3 and partly dark antennae it might be scutellatus.

Hi,
I found the key, it is definitely N.scutellatus.
Thanks!

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
