Hello,

I found this species in northern Germany.
Is it possible to ID it?

Seems to be a Machimus/Tolmerus sp. It seems very fresh. Hard to tell without the colouration of legs.It might help to mention place/habitat and time.

found near grazing land and a pond...
in the agrarian landscape of lower saxony.
July

Are the legs of the fresh/young flies not coloured yet?

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
