 Hi,

It's an Urophora alright, but not U. cardui, the wing pattern is different. In U. cardui the discal and preapical bands are joined at the posterior side, whereas in this specimen they are separated. This is a species of the solstitialis-complex, males are unidentifyable, and females only based in the tip of th aculeus.... So it's impossible to give a specific name..

John

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
