Female with red upper part of front leg - can it be Dilophus femoratus?
Found on west coast of Norway (Hordaland) in beginning of June.

Looks like it, especially when it is from lower altitudes.
Dilophus is very difficult genus, impossible to be sure from picture.

For Norwegian Dilophus species, see Skartveit 1996 or Skartveit 2004.

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
