Photographed very recently in a vegetable plot in Zhejiang China. Around 3mm in body length. Could it be something like Scaptomyza graminum (a cosmopolitan species)? Thanks!

This fly has clearly only two rows of acrostichal setae and its female genitalia conform to S. pallida. To be cautious, I prefer to tell "Scaptomyza cf. pallida".

I cannot exclude S. (P.) elmoi which occurs e.g. in Anhui, the province neighbouring to Zhejian.

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
