 Hello dipterists
a very tiny larva about 1mm max found in brackish water in Alentejo/Portugal
IT seems to me Chaoboridae larva

But the head profile seen from abov is wider than common Chaoboridae larvae
COuld it be because of the juvenile stage of the larva ?
The head is not crushed by the coverglass !!!

No siphon, then no Mochlonyx sp.

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
