It is a Sarcophagidae, probably a very dark Sarcophaga s.l.

I agree with Theo -- a male of Sarcophaga (sensu lato). The specimen appears to be rather large and has black terminalia, which in combination with the dark colour could indicate subgenus Robineauella (most common species = S. (R.) caerulescens). However, the wings are heavily worn along the hind margin suggesting a rather old specimen, and such aged specimens often get darker.

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
