 Hello,

Is this fly a Bithia ? May be B. acanthophora ?

 Bithia yes, I'd say female B. modesta

 Thank you very much !
In this key, it's written that B. modesta doesn't have marginal bristles on T2.
Mine has no ? I see two dorso marginal bristles

 Jessica, so the first two segments are merged, called syntergite 1&2. That makes tha apparent second segment actually the third.
So syntergite 1&2 has ni marginals here. https://uk.inaturalist.org/taxa/321744-Bithia-modesta

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
