 Hi Barbara,

With this habitus and an entirely yellow stigma, 90% this is Tephrochlamys rufuventris.

Kind regards,

 The small bristle on the anterior of mid femur is visible in 1st pic, so T. rufiventris looks right to me, too.

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
