Cimbicidae_Cimbex americana is the correct name? Slovak Republic, Malá Fatra, approximately altitude cca 800 m a. s. l. Thank you very much for your help. Best regards. Fote date: 24. 05. 2018.

Hello Mucha Fero,

Yes, a Cimbex, but not C. Americana. That is a Nearctic species with partially red abdomen. This seems to be Cimbex fagi, which lives on Beech trees (Fagus sylvatica).

Greetings,

Wow, a male. It is quite difficult to find males of these large species in Slovakia. They are much less visible.

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
