A rather Scatopse-like specimen, some 2,4 mm long. What could it be? By mountain brook?

Most likely is Apiloscatopse picea.

Thank You, meanwhile I found a picture of the specimen: the colouration and size and habitat also fits according to my old key. Femora, Tibiae yellowish proximally (just a small piece of it), wing vein brown, body with yellow markings. Aedeagus S-shaped. All as must be Smile

Based on what I can see now I would change my opinion to scutellata, for example based on the tip of the penis, which is plate-like rather than narrow with a subapical hook. Both species are very much alike but are different in genitalia but also in general colouration: more yellowish parts in scutellata. The scutellum is more yellow in scutellata than in picea but in turn the femora in scutellata have more black.

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
