I think that this a Sepedon type , because the Oc-bristels are not present, but I find the hindmost leg quite thin, differently I would think of S.spinipes.
Someone any idea?

Nope, not Sciomyzidae.
This is a Chloropidae, I think the genus is Platycephala.

Hello Joke,
Nikita is right! I immediatly assumed it was a Chloropid because the genus Platycephala has species that almost exactly look like this. But indeed there is also a Lauxaniid that looks like this, there is already a picture in the album of the family.
So, forget the answer I gave, because Nikita is right! Grin

Both many thanks!
In my determinetion tabel is standing bij Lauxaniidae that there are Oc bristels present.......but thats wrong I presume. (Or they are this way small, I cannot that see them) So I made a note in my book.

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
