Yes, I had once more a closer look and Tachinidae it is. I must rename the thread but don't expect much from a fly in this condition.

It's quite interesting - even if it is a bit tiny and grey (like Actia or Phytomyptera). The second segment of the arista is very long though (like Triarthria but this doesn't have a lot of parafacial bristles), and it should be ringing alarm bells with me but I can't think what it might be Smile

could be many things from a small Meigenia to Paracraspedothrix.

Too much guessing even for my taste

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
