Ptilogyna (Plusiomyia) herroni (Alexander, 1948): flagellomeres bipectinate, scutellum contrastingly yellow
Edited by Dmitry Gavryushin on 25-01-2019 22:40
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

Thanks a lot Dmitry! Is it a different species of Ptilogyna neocaledonica that is mentioned in some publications?

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
