 The pupa was collected on Ficus variolosa where there were some Perina nuda caterpillars around.

 I would say most likely Tachinidae - the configuration of the posterior spiracles is very like Exorista (see Fig. 738 in Smith, KGV, 1989) available at https://www.royen...res-index/

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
