The white-tipped mid tarsi suggest Sciapus platypterus, but check to see if any other species have similar ornaments. This is a male; females have plain legs.

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
