Good Day, How are you? I am new to insect collecting, and am interested in collecting Culicids as my first Dipteran family. However, I am not quite sure I understand the mechanics of collecting such a fragile-seeming family. Are they suitable for pinning? With which size pins? I believe that I may be able to contribute some information about South African species through my collecting attempts. Any information or advice would be appreciated. Sincerely, Johanan E. Viljoen |
