During last month I often find this 3-4mm fly mostly in shadow places.
May be somebody help me to find the Family?

It's a lauxanid fly, probably of genus Meiosimyza (=Lyciella in older articles)

I will have to check the keys, but my gut feeling says Sapromyza. Unfortunately, most of my keys are in the office and out of reach at the moment. I will get back. Wink

Sapromyza shouldn't have strong pre-sutural dorsocentral setae and this fly clearly has one presutural pair of dc. So my gut feeling is still Meiosimyza, but it could still be something else. But no Finnish Meiosimyza has a reddish mesonotum. :-? A clear-winged Homoneura perhaps?

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
