Oscinisoma cognatum (Meigen, 1830), Chloropidae. The three species O. germanicum (Duda, 1932), O. gilvipes (Loew, 1858), and O. cognatum are extremely difficult to distinguish. The image shows a shining humeral callus (= shoulder), a largely dark gena, a slightly flattened thorax, a wing only slightly longer than the abdomen, a completely yellow hind tibia, a frons darkened aside of the ocellar triangle, an ocellar triangle very long and with pollen (= pubescence) only aside and in front of the ocelli, a triangle not touching the eye margin, about ¾ width of the frons between the eyes, tergites glabrous, wing membrane partly yellowish, R4+5 apically slightly divergent with M1+2. All these characters here observable are not sufficient but typical for a distinction after the unpublished study (of much material including the types of gilvipes and germanicum) by M. von Tschirnhaus.
This is a typical species of the genus Oscinisoma Lioy, 1864 (Chloropidae, Oscinellinae), partly wrongly spelled Oscinosoma. The mesonotum (= scutum) is slightly depressed and not smooth but it has a rough surface.
The adults prefer the stratum close to the soil between Carex tussocks, running ant-like and living together with the raptorious Stilpon spp. (Hybotidae).

Thank you very much for your kind explanations!
Seems to fit the biotopes as well.

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
