 Hi, I got this Opomyzidae today from the same place I got Geomyza hackmani female some days ago. This one is male and I have no key. Should I take some closeups or study something as long as the specimen is still fresh?

 This certainly looks like G. hackmani. You could use following publication to identify your specimen:

Drake, C.M., 1993. A Review of the British Opomyzidae.? British Journal Ent. Nat. Hist. 6: 159-176.

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
