Looks more like a muscid to me, perhaps near Limnophora?

It has the narrow face and projecting "forehead" of Leucophora. 2+2 ad+pd on hind tibia is more typical of Anthomyiidae. The dark stripe beside the antennae is normal in Leucophpra. A few unrelated species of Leucophora have such a hairy mesonotum.

I agree, this is not a muscid, too many pd on t3 (rare in muscid, only on Drymeia but they are different), the calypters are small...I'd say Leucophora too.

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
