That would be my first guess from the facial dusting & bristles, plus the shadow fold on the median vein. But the thoracic dusting looks interesting - it doesn't look like one I have seen before Smile

Not to mention that the eyes are very hairy, only seen in Exorista grandis, which is, nomen est omen, bigger.

But I agree with Exoristini.

Phorinia aurifrons (again, nomen...) comes in mind

This is one of the Santaclaus flies with the white beard. I am happy that the pics are OK, I think I will not meet this fly very often in the future.

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
