Not sure. Have you a view that shows a strong ventral seta on the mid tibia?

Yes, the last image seems to show an av seta, so I think it could be L. obtusa. According to the key the closest distance between the eye margins should be as small as the distance between the posterior ocelli. The eyes do look close together, but not quite that close, so I'm still not absolutely sure.

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
