This is probably Laphria bomboides, she seems to have lost some hair at the tip of the abdomen.

The specimen was collected and stored by a coleopterists, that is probably the reason for the lost hair...

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
