Hello Volker,

it's a female bee of the genus Hylaeus (Yellow-Face-Bees). Probably Hylaeus (Prosopisternon) littleri. Look at the small yellow markings in the face.

Best regards
Volkmar

Thanks a lot, Volkmar, for your ID help!
That's really great, that you could identify this tiny bee from my fotos.
Comparison with pictures in the internet looks perfect.
Best regards,
Volker

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
