 Hi,

I'm stuck! The thorax reminds me of Psilidae but not much else does. It was running around on roof inside my greenhouse. Size maybe 4-5mm

2nd June, near Lincoln UK.

 Maybe I should put Psilidae in the title too Sara! There's nothing in the gallery with marks on the thorax like this, but I guess you have to know your Psilidae. Wink

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
