Yes. Looks like E. cristata, but the topcel is open. Confusing.
There are many more species, but not in Poland !

I was thinking about cristata but it is a bit confusing and i do not have a cristata specimen to consult. I try to help with Tachiniae whenever possible. You often have many posts to deal with, Theo. I'll try harder to contribute whenever i can do so.

Thanks and sorry, my mistake.

It is petiolata or picta, note the darkened cross-vein r- m !!

yes. I forgot that i actually have a E. picta male specimen. It looks very similar to my male E. picta.
the humeral callus is yellowish, the area around m-cu is darkened, and the basicosta is brownish yellow.
I think that E. picta is the best match. Do you agree?

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
