It was about 3-4mm long, the final part of the abdomen is curved.
Big red eyes on 3/4 of the face.

Wing veins tell it's Platypezinae and the hind tarsus does'nt fit Protoclythia.
so there are Polyporivora, Platypeza, Paraplatypeza and Lindneromyia left

Thanks for your help!

Now I saw every specie in the list and seem to be one of them:

Polyporivora ornata
Platypeza consobrina
Paraplatypeza atra (not sure about the wings)
Lindneromyia dorsalis (first choice)

Thanks to all ...

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
