 Ahhh... So, it is a bee-fly? Well, it fooled me, for sure. Thanks for the help. Any idea of the genus? I can't see the long proboscis of the Bombylius 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
