 Another Ceratopogonidae ? I was thinking of genus Culicoides. Does it seem reasonable?
Thank you!

 Ceratopogoninae is plausible. A few genera have similar wing patterns.

 Thank you john!

Is there any picture I can take that could help you with the genus?

 A closeup of the wing would be useful.

Tips of tarsi (fourth and fifth tarsomeres and claws) and antennae can also be useful in sorting Ceratopogonidae.

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
