Hello,

This beautiful Tabanid with green eyes could have been Tabanus bromius, but the Haupt manual says this species has a red line in the middle of the eyes.

Well, T. bromius is very different, have a look in the gallery.
This one is Philipomyia aprica, easily recognized by the green eyes, as mentioned.

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
