Interesting : it seems to be Villeneuvia aestuum, though I cannot be sure as it is a newly emerged fly.
Stephane.

I must have a close-up to the face and frons to (maybe) confirm : Villeneuvia have no orbital setae on frons, the face is concave and the vibrissal edges are approximated to the middle of the face.

I not have a good close-up. I have a lot of bad photos. I am sorry.
Thanks Stephane.

Hi Luis, I was a bit long to answer because I wanted to check with my own specimens, and now I can tell you that I'm confident your fly is Villeneuvia aestuum.
This is interesting because it seems not to be recorded from Spain.

Stephane.

Hello:
I have seen in Fauna Europaea the distribution of Villeneuvia aestuum http://www.faunaeur.org/distribution_table.php
but, Is this information updated?. I have seen in this web (Diptera.info) that also is present in Portugal.
Thank you.

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
