Considering the region, this could be a Neoitamus species, probably Neoitamus socius (?).

Hmm. The ovipositor is too short for Neoitamis and so are the postorbital hairs. I'd still consider Machimus/Tolmerus the best bet. Could be Tolmerus atricapillus, some specimens have almost black femora.

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
