Hello Maherjos,

The M shaped black shiny mark is a feature of the genus Desmometopa. There are six European species. Sabrosky 1983 reviewed the world species.

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
