I've caught these flies mating on a leaf in an oak wood. About 1 cm.
I've thought about something like Scatophaga sp... maybe...

Something like Tachina ursina/lurida is a probability.

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
