Looks like an Anthomyza sp (family Anthomyzidae).

According to Jindrich Rohácek (anthomyzid expert) the features needed for a definite identification are not visiable in the picture, but it most probably is a female of Anthomyza gracilis.

Hello tristram an Jan Willem,

Thank you very much for your reactions!!
Nice that Jindrich also looked at it and I have another picture to what you see a little bit more of the back.
Maybe it helps...?

Regards,

I think that for a definite identification minor details of the genitalia are needed. So not visible in the pictures.
I think the best is to regards it is Anthomyza cf. gracilis.

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
