Hello,

this photo is from last april from Sicilia. The fly was about 4mm long. The photo is not the best, but can perhaps the family or the genus be identified?

Thanks,
Michael

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
