A female Ectophasia, Tachinidae, I think.

I found 2 species of Ectophasia that may come into question (you may know of more). E. crassipennis & E. oblonga. The only feature (recognizable in this photo) that I think may help distinguish the species is in E. oblonga the bend in the wing veination (from photos on the weCool seems to have a more acute angle than E. crassipennis & this specimen. Is that a difference or have I just looked at to many photos.

The females unfortunately can only be determined if you can see the sternite 7.
The angle of the bend of vein M depends very much on the angle of view, I think.

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
