Hello,


is it possibe to distinguish between Sapromyza sp. and Chyromyidae?

I guess it is difficult, but maybe there is chance :-)

Hi John,

Thanks a lot for identifying.
Could you tell me what speaks against Chyromyidae?

Regards

The strong dorsal preapical britles on the tibiae are not present in Chyromyidae.

Bristles of the head and thorax are black. In Chyromyidae they are usually yellow to brown. Tibiae have preapical bristles, absent in Chyromyidae. Two pairs of reclinate fronto-orbital bristles are the normal condition in Lauxaniidae but Chyromyidae often have three. Most Chyromyidae have weak vibrissae.

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
