Hallo Bavaria, End of August I found these dead fly hanging on the housewall. The fungi: Could it be Entomophthora muscae? Regards, Dennis Dennis attached the following image:  [64.33Kb] |

Could well be, but you'll need to get the spores under a compound microscope when they should look like a baby's comforter. http://www.bioima...162858.htm (These were stained in cotton blue) Edited by bioimages on 22-09-2013 21:52 Malcolm Storey www.bioimages.org.uk (Two wings good, four wings better!) |

The link works with Firefox - (you have to scroll down through the images to see the blue-stained spores).
