Maybe useful to add is that females of Neoitamus are hard to identify. We can exclude N. cothurnatus for she would have a large facial gibbosity, this one has rather small one. Two possible species are left for your region: N. socius or N cyanurus. Regarding the black dorsal sides of the metatarsi this would suggest N cyanurus. N. socius has most of the time red metatarsi with a black top. To be certain one would have to study the pattern of microtrichia on wings. From just a pictur,e this will remain Neoitamus cf cyanurus. (Which is also the most common species in NW Europe.)
Greetings,

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
