Hello, I'm sure this specimen is a Bibionidae (short antennae and two long basal cells on the wing (c1, c2) of the same size, black pterostigma on the wing) and a male (really big eyes bigger than the head)

It's possibly Bibio johannis : no white hairs and red legs. But, be careful, I don't know species from Greece, only from France.

Have a good day

No, check the hind metatars. I agree with johannis. Legs can be very red in jihannis.

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
