Hello,

I was wondering if someone could tell me what it is. I was thinking a Ceratopogonidae but I am not sure. Also, if anyone has a good key for this family, it would be great!

Dasyhelea

Dasyhelea and Forcipomyia can look similar. On average Dasyhelea has larger eyes, more complicated flagellomeres (not cylindrical or round), fewer long hairs, and a longer hind basitarsus.

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
