Those Gonia are pretty difficult and this one looks odd.

Did you flash or is it the reflection of the sun ?

I did not flash, it's just the sunlight. I can add some more photos, maybe they can help.

As said, colours are weird. It is a female, most kikely a dark ornata. Without a frontal shot I cannot be sure.

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
