 Hello,

This hippoboscid was found on common swift (Apus apus). Could it be Crataerina pallida?
17.VIII.2018, Madrid, Spain

Thank you very much.

 Thanks for the compliment Tony.

By the way, this is another specimen found in the same place. Could the black bead next to it be the prepuparium?

Thank you very much.

 I would call that the puparium. The prepupa is a paler colour. See https://diptera.i...d_id=15635

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
