This male Phasia was about 4-5 mm. I think it could be P. obesa but se forward to confirmation.

I'd say it looks like Phasia obesa to me but let's wait for someone to confirm it. A male P.aurulans would have a golden mark on the thorax and it has too much dusting for P.pussilla/barbifrons Smile

This is a male ! The wings are darkened, though little.

So it is obesa.

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
