Hi,

another fly photographed yesterday (will be some more).
taken again in the same wet area close to Timisoara in a mainly Phragmites vegetation.

~7-8 mm, maybe an ID is possible.

searching thru gallery i have found Elgiva cucularia from Sciomyzidae.
maybe some one can confirm this ID?

thanks,
cosmln

later EDIT:
searching thru Fauna Europaea reveals that E.cucularia is not present in Romania. in Europe 3 species are present: E.cucularia, E.divisa and E.solicita. From this only E.solicita is present in Romania.

But based on form of head E.solicita is not a match. mayne someone can help.

Or maybe i'm in a completely wrong direction

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
