 the odd habitus, particularly the shape and posture of the wings, reminds me of an ulidiid along the lines of Callopistromyia strigula in North America https://bugguide....view/83374 or this Peruvian Pterocalla from the gallery https://diptera.i...to_id=7109

diptera.info/images/photoalbum/album_55/pterocalla_spec_3_mg_8264_t2.jpg

I suggest taking that with a grain of salt and waiting for an expert

 You're quite welcome but I suggest adding a question mark after Ulidiidae because neither John nor I are sure of what your fly 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
