This is why I love #focusstacking. Look at the wrinkles on the neck of that gnat. The hairy compound eyes. The little grey ocellus(?) Next to it. Anyone good with gnat anatomy? #setzkasten

I think I fixed the focus runoff issues on the #frankenscope, and if nothing else interrupts the current run, that's a 12x16 grid being captured in 130 layers at 80x magnification.

Gnatting there. The entire run was successful. #setzkasten

I have now updated the #setzkasten page with the full panorama, in case you want to zoom in a little further.

Settled on #mycetophila until I can get my hands on some better keys. I also started doubting the other id on M. ornata, so I will have to check both if I can find e.g. Chandler 2022 in a library.
