Is it possible to ID this fly to genus/species, about 4 mm? The legs are yellow with a lot of long black setae/hairs.

Collected along the coast? It looks like Coelopidae.
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek

I have looked clooser on the fly and it certainly looks like a Coelopidae, as you suggest Niels-Jan. Perhaps I was at the coast that day in januari and perhaps it followed me home in some way.

Best wishes

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
