 If you have a dorsal shot...? The palpi remind me of those of Desmometopa varipalpis, described from Australia.

 Thanks Paul. I'd say you are correct. There are some pictures and notes on ALA for this species. Most gratifying to get a species determination. I'll submit the picture for the gallery.

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
