 Several of these small sphaerocerids turned up in a sample from July 2021, grazed grassland (ponies, cattle), Sussex, UK.
Other species in the same sample: Leptocera nigra, Alloboborus pallifrons, Pteremis fenestralis, Coproica acutangula, Spelobia ochripes, Philocoprella quadrispina, Chaetopodella scutellaris, Ischiolepta pusila, I. denticulata, and Lotobia pallidiventris.

I just can't seem to make sense of these.

Can anyone shed a light on this?

 Coproica based on the large, hairy scutellum.

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
