This fly was round 11-13 mm. Is it possible to tell genus and perhaps species?

Thanks for your help in advance

Distinctly possible ... though the B.triangulifera that I have keyed in the past seem to be thinner in the abdomen.

Are there any more angles? Smile

I didn't respond because I don't know.
I understand the suggestion of Bllaea, but I have strong doubts on triangulifera.
But then again, there are many more Billaea species....

In practise less options in the North... The triangles are not as contrasted as usually, but I would guess the same as Stephane.

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
