 I am having no luck trying to determine this Drosophilid. To me it looks like Drosophila is that right?

Where am I going wrong? What genus is it?

About 3mm length. Collected in damp woodland valley. UK. One ventral branch on arista, just before terminal fork.

 Looks drosophilid allright but these two images are not sufficient for me to tell anything more.

 Hi Paul,
Thanks for your response. They are hard these little Drosophilids! "I have parked it" to look at another day. I am failing to get better images than these, so I think I must leave it for now.

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
