Meanwhile I performed intensive literature studies in connection with thread http://www.dipter...d_id=75454 and came to the conclusion that "K. testaceus group" is the best to be said about my animal. The diagnostic characters for the species of the group are the male genitalia (shape of the ventral lobes of the gonostyli), and the possibly overlapping variation in form has not thoroughly been studied yet. Afterwards some species names might become but synonyms.
