Hello,

I found this 6 mm fly this morning on low vegetation at a forest path (northwest Germany). At first glance I thought it was Thricops diaphanus.

Hello once more,

no comment?

The two flies below I photographed at the same time at same place. Look rather similar, but should be male and female of Phaonia pallida actually.

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
