Hi all

I am trying to take some Diptera samples to family, but am struggling with a few rather mangled Nematocera. I really struggle with the key for these, particularly in seeing the wing venation.

If anyone recognises this, that would be helpful.

Thanks

Mike

Thanks Tony

Would you mind having a look at my post on the Dipterists Forum ID thread? I have a few more specimens, but can only seem post one picture in a post here. Here is another one.

Mike
