Hi,
Is it possible to tell the species of the fly by its mine on this Alnus glutinosa?

Might be Agromyza alnivora, but there are also other animals (butterflies, beetles...) whose larvae are leaf miners - see the key for mine shapes in Dutch and English http://www.bladmi.../alnus.htm.

It looks as if the frass is in a single, median line in the mine. That would make it unlikely to be a dipteran mine...

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
