I think this may be Sciomyza dryomizina as the antenna are yellowish rather than black as in S. testacea.

Just to be sure it is not S. simplex I include an image of the posterior edge of the mesopleuron - those are hairs rather than "strong setae" aren't they? (I have no Sciomyza specimens to compare this with).

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
