 This Siphona species(?) was attracted to light in the southern part of the Netherlands. Any idea which species this can be?

 I’m not sure if it really is geniculata. The parafacial is very narrow for this species.

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
