 Moin Ray, I think it's a Tachinida - probably a (teneral?) Macquartia.

 Moin and Thanks Eric,
I'll change the title and see if I can get a confirmation of that.

Best Regards

 In this case it's the swollen frons: Tachinidae belong to the Cyclorrhapha and they escape the puparium with the ptilinum (kind of bubble expanded by haemolymph). The "bubble" shrinks but this process is not completed here.

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
