Hello,
I think this should be Ogcodes. Is it possible to say more?

This is a member of Acroceridae, but not Ogcodes, as the antennae sit close to the vertex and not close to the mouth margin. With the key in Weinberg & Bächli (1997) https://www.googl...VvVoMLvxcl I arrive at Paracrocera orbicula that is often included in Acrocera (see https://diptera.i...d_id=74358)
Regards, Sundew

What is valid ? Most recent authors do not accept Paracrocera as a genus.

In their paper of 2002 (https://www.googl...sIyRdqSHjs) Weinberg & Bächli accept the argumentation by Nartshuk (2000) and agree that Paracrocera is a junior synonym of Acrocera. So Acrocera orbiculus is correct.

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
