Bonjour Louis,

with such a sclerotised head, I would say Coleoptera, but maybe Lepidoptera is also possible,.

Bibionidae - the spiky processes (and slightly thicker lateral processes) and well-sclerotised head are typical.

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
