Hi!
It looks like a species from the Erberi group to me. So if I'm right, then the name is H. expollicata (you have no other alternatives in Sweden).

I agree with Sergiy.
I am very surprised to see this species so far north, however, it has been reported before from Sweden.
Great find !

Wow, thanks to both of you for your kind help! I thought it would be impossible to ID and then it turns out to be a rare species Grin

It is redlisted as VU in Sweden and furthermore it seems to be the by far northernmost finding in Sweden.

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
