I think this is Stenopogon ochripes, but i've never seen this species before.

But isn't it too whitish? I don't think abdomen is compatible at all

Shape of this creature is typical for Stenopogon including facial gibbosity beard etc.

Note: Determination from a single picture may be hazardous. Not all characters are visible like wing venation, sternites et cetera.

Description by Engel:

A small species with yellow ochre dusted thorax and abdomen (visible). Back of head dusted yellow (visible). Bristles on mesonotum reddish yellow (visible). Legs 1 and 2 red/yellow, no bristles on the underside of f1 (can't see that, rest is obvious). F3 antero/dorsal with a thin black stripe, T3 top extensively blackened (visible). Bristles on legs reddish yellow (visible). Claws black with red base (visible)Tergites ochre yellow dusted with silky yellow hind edges (in picture last two tergites are darker but the rest fit description). Sternites shiny black with brown hind edges(sternites are not visible in picture) Hypopygium redish yellow a bit shiny, "side parts" (gonocoxite?) with axe shaped shiny black ends(visible?)

Once you agree that this is a Stenopogon species it keys out in Engel to S. ochripes. In my opinion the description fits.

About genus I'm 150% agree with you. Stenopogon, and considering the yellowish/whitish I think that the species is very likely ochripes

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
