 Collected in a malaise trap the 6th of July 2008 in Sint Philipsland, the Netherlands. It is Limoniidae, I think subfamily Limnophilinae. The crossvein near the wing tip is confusing me. Can anybody help?

 Does the other wing also have an extra crossvein? Crane flies often have extra veins in one wing.

 You are right John, it is an aberration. The other vein doesn't have the crossvein.Smile

 In America I would suggest Austrolimnophila, distinguished from Limnophila by "MA (anterior branch of medius, arculus) lacking" in Alexander's terminology.

 I'd say a female Austrolimnophila ochracea.

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
