Hello everyone,
this summer i participated at a scientific mission in the Makay mountain with Naturevolution. This project aims to inventory the entomofauna for to preserve the region, which has recently become a protected area.
I collected many samples of Diptera, many family.
I want to make contact with people, specialists of the families concerned, having the skills and the time to determine these samples collected at the end of the world !
To learn more, you can read this article (possible to translate in English with the translate tool on the right side of the page) :

I remain available to answer and provide additional information.
Benoît

I see a Diopsidae in the photos. Hans Feijen is the expert on the family. You will find him on this site.

Dear Benoit,
I am reviewing the horseflies (Tabanidae)of Madagascar.
The first two parts did appear in Studia Dipterologica, yet two to come !
Any horsefly material will be highly appreciated.
