That is an Admontia and the antenna are indeed large, suggesting A. grandicornis.
But I cannot see enough of the fly to be sure.

Nice det. But, just for the record, what gave you the thought that it was Admontia? Smile

Chris


It is clearly Blondeliini, it is a male with proclinate orbitals, the antenna is very long and the dust pattern on thorax... so general habitus.

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
