Thank You, I'll try to rear it. Suppose it's developed enough to be able to pupate.

It looks like it will pupate. Unlike most other Nematocera, cecidomyids form a puparium (i.e. they pupate within the last larval skin). Good luck!Smile

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
