Scutellum appears to be bare on the surface -> Gymnochiromyia, most likely then flavella.

I made this table from different documents to help myself distinguishing Chyromya from Gymnochiromyia :
I think it is a male Chyromya here :

Gut feeling said Chyromya but I could not see any setae on the scutellar surface. Perhaps the original images shed more light. Yann?

Sorry, no better view of the scutellar :-(
For my understanding, the rounded eyes and the swollen femora are not enough for this genus ?

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
