 It appeared in my work place in a factory, so probably is a very common species, parasite of pigeons for sure.

Somebody can help me with ID?

 Thanks Jorge! I also suspected on Pseudolychnia canariensis, for be a common and urban species. I'll wait for Theo, but I have the exemplar collected for you :-)

Today I saw two Cyrtus gibbus and a Lampromyia iberica - aaaargh again without photo.

 I agree.

First impression is a dark Hippobosca equina, but the wing venation does not agree.

Please collect some, if you have the opportunity (species still lacking in my collection !)

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
