I am still struggling.

It is too small for Billaea or Estheria. It keys out to Dinera, but I don’t believe that. Wing venation suggests some Blondeliini. Note the majority of hairs on backside of head are dark. “proclinate” orbital bristles are actually lateroclinate, very unusual in Tachinidae. Artificial ? Are we very very sure this is not some weird Calliohoridae (Eggisops ???)

Some thoughts

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
