No response to this then, either its a rarity or not to be considered worthy of a comment.

Cheers Paul, i thought this would be an easy one to ID, because of the eyes being an extraordinary colour. I would love to include it my local Eye Project but cant do so until i have a firm ID.

regards brian.

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
