Maybe a Metalimnobia. Do you have any tibia and tarsal pictures?

yes, it is Metalimnobia. Perhaps tenua, but this is not an identification! M. tenua is very similar to M. 4-notata; the best differences are in male hypopygium, especially in parameres (hypopygium should be KOH cleared if one wishes to have good identification). tenua is usually lighter colored than 4-notata, almost as light as bifasciata.

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
