 This small fly was found feeding on Daucus carota in Central Greece, back in July of 2020.
Any help with the identification would be appreciated.

 This will be in Mythicomyiidae, with Empidideicus and related genera. Not my area of expertise.

 I would suggest Platypygus ridibundus.

Greetings,

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
