 Mmmm ...
I'm not saying it isn't trivitattus - but ...
the lower picture seems to show a rather dark facial stripe - is this just a very dark-faced individual, or is it an artifact of the picture? Frown

 Thanks, Richie - that's a yellow facial stripe OK - so it is trivittatus. The angle of your second picture really does make the stripe look darker, which is why I queried it.
Many thanks for showing us the other pictures. 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
