 This specimen was on the kitchen window glass waiting to fly off.
Found it on 25/2/12, in Gzira, Malta. Any help will be appreciated.

 Chironomini. Probably close to Chironomus.

 Thanks for your input.
I presume female because of the simpler antennae?

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
