A just submitted new photos from the Sphyracephala!

$88 for the stalk-eyed one!

I guess an Eccoptomera filata male will have a higher price than a Suillia variegata, but what will be the difference between variegata and affinis?
rvanderweele 17 November 2010 23:24:27
so, stalked-eyed flies have commercial value. I think in a few years we will look in a new edition of the Cat. of. Pal. Diptera, in which also the "price" of the species are given.

Speaking of stalk-eyed flies, I just stumbled upon this: http://cgi.ebay.c...67504181QQ, I would rather collect it myself though.
Gunnar M Kvifte 17 November 2010 18:52:21
Sphaerocephala europaea? Yay!

A reply that would put a smile on the face of Odin himself Hakon Wink. Don't know what Thor might have thought of it. New hair parting with an axe for me for bringing up the subject I suppose Frown

Roger: I guess Vikings always were easily amused; it is just what we find amusing that has changed.
pwalter 16 November 2010 22:26:43
Today I saw a hundred specimens of the European Stalk-Eyed Fly! (in a lab culture at our University). Fotos later maybe...
Roger Thomason 16 November 2010 16:09:48
Multinationals are now doing it globally on an industrial scale, thought you might have noticed. Frown

Nowadays, these are only practiced on the Shetlands...
Roger Thomason 16 November 2010 02:09:31
Hours of fun? Vikings seem to be easily amused these days....Whatever happened to the good old days of rape and pillage! Angry

while running a 10K I saw quite some Calliphoridae flying. And no, I did not drink wine before putting on my running shoes!
rvanderweele 14 November 2010 13:25:33
I don't like the use of alcohol. I rather drink it Wink It is easy to put the flies on EtOH, but to use them laater becomes a nuisance.
Paul Beuk 14 November 2010 00:06:02
Micropinning IMO is better than glueing, but I put most in alcohol these days.
rvanderweele 13 November 2010 21:21:51
Who of you is glueing tiny flies on cards? Until now I am used to minuten pins, but read that glueing has certain advantages.
KWQ 13 November 2010 19:35:52
Haven't heard of any. I guess that like there were "developing countries", Chloropidae are "developing fly families" Wink.
Sara21392 13 November 2010 15:49:00
I’m so thanks from you and your attention, I have a question: Are there any web sites that I can download them or no? again thanks a lot! Cool
KWQ 13 November 2010 13:30:26
To continue: Check also Hugo Andersson's generic key and Entomologica Fennica papers from the 1990's.
