The fly was caught by hand indoors, November 11th 2023 (Spain: Girona: Beuda: 400 masl)
Looks like Musca but is not Musca domestica. Perhaps M.autumnalis, but abdomen is mostly grey with orange only anteriorly.

It has a broad frontal vitta and haired proepisternum, consistent with Musca domestica.

That's the hairs on proepisternum (in front of spiracle) that seemed to be absent to me...

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
