Limnellia surturi - I think this is new for Spain. Do you have a specimen?

Hi, Tony
Excuse my question but, It may be another species of Limnellia?
A Spanish dipterologist think that is unlikely to be surturi.
If there is the possibility that this was an unknown species I would like to know if I find her again. I could collect it.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Luis

Hi Luis. Of course there is a possibility you have found a new species, but I think it more likely that this is surturi. Please do collect some if you find them again - it would be good to establish whether surturi does live in Spain.

I collect if I find again. Will be the first living creature that I collect. So far I've only collected dead "bugs".
Although it would be wonderful to discover a new species I also think it's more likely to be surturi.
Thank you so much for your time, Tony.
Best regards,
Luis

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
