 I think it may be the curly dock Rumex cripus.

 So Aphis evonymi comes close, which does not only feed on Euonymus europaeus, but may also live on Rumex - see http://influentia..._aphid.htm.
I wished I knew Aphids better!

 Thanks Sundew, actually I have checked from pictures on internet and my specimen very much looks like Aphis evonymi!

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
