 Ukraine, Rivne region, on May 17.
Am I correct in thinking that the photo shows Psilota sp. ? Is it possible to determine the species ?

 Wow, I have never seen any belonging to that genus myself, but your animal certainly seems to fit well with Falks phots of P. atracina from Britain, https://www.flickr.com/photos/63075200@N07/albums/72157629238038404/with/6843299798/

 I was lucky enough to see them a second time. Last year, I saw a female that was probably looking for a nesting place in a pine stump:

It looks like it could be P. atracina, but couldn't it be Psilota atra?

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
