 Is it possible to confirm that this is Elachiptera bimaculata ? Shot in the East of France.
Thank you.

 E. austriaca also looks like this, but supposedly has just one pair of orbital setae whereas bimaculata has two

 Thank you. It is hard to see the orbital setae on my pictures, but I can guess 2 orbital setae near the right eye on the dorsal view. Besides, Elachiptera austriaca is not known in France.

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
