 It has an intra-alar bristle and dark halteres, so it is likely one of the dark-colored Minettia that we call the obscura group in America and I think go under the name Frendelia in Europe.

 Thanks John. Yes, Paul Beuk has confirmed via Facebook that it is Minettia longipennis.

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
