 You are very lucky. This is Mymaridae, the smallest of the small. I found only 2 in my life. There's one family that looks also like this, the Mymarommatidae, which are extremely rarely found and have a separate superfamily. I think antennae are different in that family.

 Stunning photo ... how did you ever see it in the first place? Grin I have seen them in Malaise trap samples but they are like dust.

 Actually, Mymar are giants among the Mymaridae and, when present, are reasobably well visible to a keen observer.

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

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
