 Thanks, Stefan and Igor!
size seems to fit.
Acording to http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=36976&pid=163745 is cinereus characterized amongst other by its thoracic bristles are reddish yellow.

Is it safe to skip the question mark?

 Ole,

You can skip the question mark, this is definitely A. cinereus (female).
Check the key in Pollet (1996).
Cheers,
Marc

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
