I can not manage to ID it.Frown I'm thinking quadrivittata, but it doesn't totally fit. Any ideas?

Hi,

Nice fly and good photos. It would be great if you could macerate the hypopygium in KOH and take photographs on the hypopygium immersed in ethanol or glycerol. However, this is some sg. Lunatipula, perhaps livida/circumdata or something very close to them.

This is almost certainly Tipula (Lunatipula) livida livida van der Wulp, 1859, unless it is a member of the livida group not know from France yet, like circumdata (see http://ip30.eti.uva.nl/ccw/ for distribution details of these species).

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
