 Hi, I think it's a male Rhinophora lepida.

 Yes, that is the first impression, but I disagree.The calypter is too large. Moreover, it is clearly a male (long pulvilli, narrow vertex) and male Rhinophora would have grey spots on tergites.

The only genus that makes sense is Loewia. But I would like to see the head in profile to be more sure.

 Thanks a lot, Theo - seems, I have to clean up my Rhinophoridae collection in search of Loewia!

Greetings, Eric

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
