 It is not Neoitamus since it don't have L-shaped hairs behind the upper edge of compound eyes. The ovipositor remind me of Tolmerus (atricapillus) (sometimes included in Machimus). So I'd say Machimus is very well possible, but let's wait for a more educated opinion.

 I think there are too many additional species in Italy for me to suggest more than Neomochtherus or Machimus. Frown

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
