Hi,

I think this is Nemorilla maculosa. Is it possible to confirm?

Nemorilla is fine, but looks more like female N. floralis to me.
Females of both species are very similar.

Thanks Theo. I considered this to be N. maculosa because the pedicel is partially yellowish. Fortunately I also collected a male in the same spot, which I just photographed (see photos below). The postocellar setae are not hook-like, so it should be N. maculosa. Do you agree?

Interestingly the male's palpi are black while the female's are yellow. But I read that it is variable.

Rui,
I checked my collectio:
You are right.
The male is maculosa, as is the female.

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
