Hi Eugene K,

Themira nigricornis! Meron entirely pruinose and wide, orange genae. Probably in the vicinity of a carcass? In spring you can find them in the Netherlands on carcasses of Roe deer.

Kind regards,

Ectemnius

Thank you, Ectemnius. In fact, there were no carcasses nearby. It was early spring, flies gathered on a freshly cut stump flowing out of juice.
Thanks again

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
