I'm not surprised

Thanks for the explanations, Nikita! Yes, I know the paper by Nihei & de Carvalho (2007) (it's here: https://academic....93/2630914), and there is also a subsequent one by the same authors (2009, https://www.resea..._Diagnoses. They treat Eudasyphora as subgenus but, as it seems to be not monophyletic, demand further studies to verify or merge the subgenus. Does anyone know a more recent study on this subject? I wonder why GBIF and Fauna Europaea still maintain Eudasyphora as a genus...

Dear Johnes
How are you doing ? I am asking, because you seem to be very grumpy, lately. While I welcome your knowledge in Calliphoridae and other families, I don't welcome your tone with personal attacks. Feel free to comment or even criticize on any post I ever made, Popper rules ! But there is no need to make it personal. This forum is for friends of Diptera, and I stress friends. If you want to quarrel or pick a fight, there are many more suitable places all over the internet available.
Your recent tone of voice is in my opinion unnecessary, please don't do that. I will report them as improper to the webmaster. You might consider rewriting your contributions, in which case I will be happy to delete this post. In the unhappy event you continu your aggresive tone, I will continu to report these posts.

Stay healthy and be happy

Hi Nikita,

I hope that you are well. Thank you for confirming Dasyphora. I'm happy that Matej has a proper id for his flies. I have not examined Dasyphora yet, so all of my knowledge of this genus is attributed to Hennig Die Fliegen material.

I also used Hennig to id the female Spilogona.

Best wishes, Nikita and Matej,
John

Thank you all for interesting information. For me, as an amateur, especially some simple hints are valuable. I am not sure if I once am able to use keys for Muscidae or Tachinidae, but when I retire...

Best regards
Matej
