Hi,

Can anyone Id this small fly for me please ?

My guess from the gallery was a Hybotidae, but that was only from the appearance of the head/eyes and I could not see any with the swollen hind metatarsus that this one seems to have.

The picture was taken 19th June 2006 - Southern England in my garden on a warm sunny afternoon, size was not recorded but appears small (5mm ?) from another photo showing more of the leaf but that is only a guess.

Regards Chas

Thanks Tony,

I can see some similarities now to the Beris chalybata in the gallery now that you have pointed me in the right direction.

Regards Chas

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
