I think that clinches it. E. nuntia. It was my earlier suspicion but the collection date is extremely early, as Collin recorded it as a very common species from Britain occurring between 28 April and 10 July. I realise that that may have been stretched already in recent years, but this is very early.

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
