This is more common in Ph. discrepans. The vertex seems too broad, though.
Pteropleural bristle absent or present ?

I couldn’t agree more.

Except for this weird stub, it is a pretty typical male Ph. melanocephala. So I guess that is what it is.

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
