 I think I can just about make out 2 setae on the katepisternum which would make it a Silba species - female Iain

 Hello Iain,

Thank you for your reaction!
I think if this is the female, the other one (the first photo) may be the male..?

Regards,
Hedy

 They both have quite a wide distance between the eyes so my guess is that they are both females

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
