Not Drosophilidae, but I'm afraid I can't help with what it
is. Sorry!

If it is already in alcohol, leave it there. If it is dry, leave it like that, too, I will make sure it will be transferred to alcohol without mishap, but make certain the specimen cannot be shaken to bits during transfer.

Chyromya femorellum/flava, possibly
femorellum but females cannot be separated reliably

As a matter of interest, what is the current taxonomic status of
Chyromya oppidana?

It is still valid and, oh dear, I need to read my keys better.
C. oppidana has the first
flagellomere black and not the first
antennal segment. :S So, this is
C. oppidana.
