 Milichiidae, indeed. Impossible to say which species but it looks at least some Desmometopa are present. Multiple species can be present at any time.

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
