There were several specimens in the area.
I can not assure you that all photos are of the same specimen.

Photograph taken on 04 October, 2014, in the wetlands of the Suárez Pond, Motril, Granada, Spain.
Immediate area of the Mediterranean coast.
Apparent size with wings, about 5-6 mm

Thanks for help!

All but the last appear to be Diaphorinae or Rhaphium.
The last looks like Sciapus except the first flagellomere is too long.

I deleted the last picture, which indeed looks very different.
Diaphorinae is subfamily. Rhaphium is genus.
Rhaphium is a genus within Diaphorinae?
Excuse my doubts, but I have no knowledge of entomology.

Very grateful for your help.
Kind regards from southern Spain.

Thanks for identifying which proposes.
With your guidance I edit the title, hoping that some other specialist also wants to give us their opinion.

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
