Hi Raimo, I think it could be a female Thricops diaphanus - but I'm not sure, as usually it should have a completely black EDIT: frontal vitta (was parafrontalia).

My initial guess also Eric, but I could not find any photo of one with this yellow there.

I've looked at the image again and firstly, my mistake: it's the frontal vitta which is black and yellow! But secondly, I saw that the fly has 2 pairs of inclinate frontal setae which qualifies it as a Thricops. There's no other completely yellow Thricops, so T. diaphanus seems to be the right ID. Perhaps it's a partly teneral one.

It "Looks very similar to" a Pegomya geniculata ...

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
