I'd agree that it's very like Brachydeutera.

I believe this is Brachydeutera longipes, based on lateral coloration of thorax. This is a relatively recent introduction, reported by Mathis & Steiner 1986, where they found it from Maryland to Georgia.

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
