 No idea about this pretty one.

9th June 2008. M?laga, south Spain. Habitat: small, tiny watercourse, all water covered vith plants, specially Typha latifolia (the leaves that appears in the pics). Size: about 5-6 mm long.

Note: opening and closing the wings many times, if it's useful for identification.

 My guess is a Ceroxys, Ulidiidae. The habitat fits C. urticae, but you probably have more species in Spain than we have in Britain.

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
