Dear Chris, why is this a Grypoctonus sp.? I miss the second crossvein, has something changed in the description of the genus? Or is it simply absent in the left wing and present in the right wing?

Indeed it looks like the crossvein is missing. I've never actually used that character as the gestalt is recognizable enough. If this is Cyrtopogon, then Grypoctonus is not a valid genus IMO.

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
