Hi,

I have photographed this small (3mm) fly last week on a daisy, 70km south of Paris.
Any idea of its identity?
Thanks for any help,

FRV

Chloropidae, Oscinellinae: Conioscinella, probably C. frontella (Fallén, 1820), the most abundant and ubiquistic species in the genus. This specimen has sparsely and short haired palpi. A very similar unclarified sister species has dense and longer haired palpi appearing matt from a comparable distance. Type study is necessary to find out to which Fallén's name belongs. Read further threads on this taxon for more information.

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
