 I'm stuck with this specimen. The key leads me to a dead end between families Sepsidae, Lauxaniidae and Clusiidae...
but I am convinced it does not belong to any of them.
Any idea? Frown

 Thanks Andrzej!
It confused me the fact that the specimen had not a visible greater ampulla.

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
