Thank you.
Very grateful for their identification.
With your guidance I edit the title.

Is it possible to reach the species?.
Best regards.

For me, no - very careful measurement of the frons/eye widths is necessary and you might also have species not in my key Smile

Very grateful for your explanations.

I have no ability or training to identify. I'm an amateur.

My proposal has no more foundation than the visual comparison with this I've found in Diptera Gallery ... http://www.dipter...oto_id=773

But you are experts, who must decide.

If I can add more photos of the same fly or other, seemingly similar photographed in the same place.

Best regards.

I think anything more than Carcelia spec. is pure speculation.

It is not rasa, though, in my opinion.

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
