This dark specimen resembles the Lonchoptera from thread 11704 very much. That species is called L. lutea, but i wonder if it could be a different species, from coastal areas?

Perhaps a Lonchopteridaespecialist can tell me.?

I don't know if we have any real Lonchoptera specialists on the forum, but I can tell you that L. lutea is highly variable in colouration.

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
