Is it possible to indentify this fly? Could it be a Pegomya perhaps?
From southern Sweden 5 november

Thanks for your suggestion! You are mayby right here, although these ones seems to be hard to id from pictures!? Or is it safe to call this one Mycophaga testacea?

Lets hope for some more comments.

looks similar to Mycophaga testacea but I only have a male specimen. The head looks slightly different to me. If this is not Mycophaga testacea then I would suggest Helina. Did you view the ovipositor?

I agree with female Mycophaga testacea but I'm not an expert.

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
