 I think that Dima's first ID seems correct - tip of abdomen with white hairs - B.medius.

 A female B. discolor Mik. medius is uniformly tawny, lacking the black tip to the abdomen and the white medial spots. the longer "white" hairs are in fact black bristles shining white, as can be seen in the profile shot.

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
