Dear Forum,

2 of these flys were found on Daucus carota. I thought with that wind pattern it should be easy to find, but I didn't succeed... Melanophora roralis? Who can help?

Thanks,


Markus

Hello Markus, the colours/reflections were a bit misleading but I think it's a female Rhinophora lepida.

I’m sorry, but I don’t think it is Rhinophoridae, but Nyctia halterata (Calliphoridae).
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek

As long as you don’t use Seguy, it is not a Rhinophoridae. 😀

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
