 Thank you for your reaction Stephane!
Probably it is a Saltella sphondylii..?

 I must confess I can't decide between S. sphondylii and nigripes...

 In our Dutch species-system we only have sphondylii...
I may add two pictures, maybe they will help..
Can you say what part you need to be more sure..?

 Thank you, that helps,
Saltella sphondylii is OK, it is clearer that the katepisternum is entirely pruinose, and the mouth edge is protruding.
Stephane.

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
