Re: Fluffy fly

I was expecting a fungified one, as well!

These are a beautiful group of insects, but apparently you can only identify most of them when they're slide mounted. The details of the antennae are apparently a useful features, though, and that's certainly accessible via macro. To my knowledge, though, there's no useful ID reference to them - it's all in isolated papers. Sounds like someone needs to do a website... Jason?
