Hello Michael, I think it is Chloromyia formosa (Stratiomyidae).

I'd rather think Microchrysa polita, a female.

Hello,

that's always good, when people find an agreement :-) I would have been happy, if had recognized the family stratiomyidae.

Dank je wel,

Chloromyia formosa has much bigger antennas (and straight ones).

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
