Thanks, Theo - of course it is and must sort out this evil picture of vitripennis with no visible black on the left wing...

I currently have some to many photos of these Snipeflies:
Chrysopilus asiliformis, cristatus, Chrysopilus laetus
Ptiolina nigrina
Rhagio conspicuus, immaculatus, maculatus, scolopaceus, vitripennis
and it would be a pleasure to support, if you could use it.

Greetings, Eric

North-west Europe:
DK, UK, Eire, NL, B, Lux and both France and Germany north of the line Paris - Neurenburg.
Stricty mountain species ( occurring on ly above 800 m. asl.) are excluded.

That said, from a practical point of view the cchances are 98 % it eill work all over Central Europe. Only a few Mediterrenean and moutain species are lacking.
But when you cross the Alps, you are on your own Smile

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
