Yellow fly with wing length about 4mm found 30 June 2014 indoors in Ipswich, Suffolk. I think this is a female Meiosimyza rorida.
Is that the right ID?

Best wishes,
Martin

Looks good! I think I see the row of anteroventral spines on fore femur in the second (frontal) photo. Two sternopleural setae are present, and also the chaetotaxy is ok (compare http://www.dipter...d_id=42117). So I would agree with your ID Smile.
Regards, Sundew

Thanks Sundew.

I've cropped this image to try and give a better view of the anteroventral comb-like rows of black spinules on the fore femora.

Best wishes,
Martin

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
