IT is an Ectophasia, it looks a bit odd, though, can't tell the species.

Thanks Theo,
Is it really a male?
Cerretti signals for Sardinia only oblonga and leucoptera, not crassipennis.

I didn't claim it to be male, it is quite hard to see the difference in Ectophasia.
Sardinia is very little studied, I have no doubt whatsoever that crassipennis occurs on Sardinia.
Nevertheless, this could be oblonga.

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
