13 March 2007, New Brunswick, Canada. Still very wintery here, lots of snow. Today it reached 9 C and this fly was active.

My guess is Lispocephala sp. But it would need some expert for North American Coenosiinae.

Caricea = Lispocephala. Traditionally this genus is called Lispocephala in the old world, Caricea in the new world. I don't know if this issue has been resolved yet.

Thanks everyone. 11 spp. listed in Nearctica.com under Caricea. Haven't been able to narrow down the species occurring in New Brunswick.
Close-up of abdomen that may help an idetification in the future.
I guess not, although there is a window to add an attachment Diptera.Info will not accept an imageSad

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
