 Today I found at least ten of these little black flies sunning on a rock at Leerdam, Netherlands. Length a few mm. Could they be Lonchaeidae perhaps?

Thanks in advance!

 Not Lonchaeidae, which is acalyptrate. This is clearly a calyptrate fly - you can see the thoracic suture.

 Thanks, Susan and Kahis.
They come in all shapes and forms, those Anthomyiidae Shock

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
