 hi flyforum,

This morning I found a Rhinophoridae sp. on my sunny window at home. Smile
Is this sp. Phyto Melanocephala?

 Hi Robert,
Close. It is a Rhinophorid, definitely not Phyto, however.
My guess would be Stevenia umbratica

 Hi Theo,

This week, I can make a good detailed picture of (for example) the head, if that is needed..?
to be more sure about St. umbratica..

Or what other detail is needed?

Thank you anyway for your comment Smile

 To be very sure, I would need a pic of the head in sideview, in order to see the lower parafacialia.
But I have little doubt it is Stevenia umbratica.

Was it found inside a house, or outside ?

Theo

 I found the fly inside the house, but there is al lot of 'traffic' with plants inside and outside the house. On my balcony I have many Isopoda..

I am bussy this week, but I'll try to make a better picture of the lower parafacialia.

Greeting, Robert

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
