I'm inclined towards Neria nigricornis (http://micropezid...my/term/26) given that it's black and the country it is from.
My notes on this are as follows:
Head: Frons black with an orange strip next to the antennae. Antennae: scape, pedicel and flagellum yellow, the latter with darkened edges Thorax: Black & shining on the mesonotum, some pruinosity on the pleurae. Legs: Hind femur with one black ring

It would be nice, because species is pretty rare in Finland. Unfortunately it lives only in Lapland and Jyväskylä is in Middle-Finland. Nowadays the direction of distribution is from south to north.

Regards,
Raimo

It is indeed rare, so any observations you may have about its habitat would be of value. As would a precise Lat/Long
The countries it has been recorded from (published articles only) are as follows:
Poland Muchowski, V., & Zatwarnicki, T. (2001).
Sweden Lund University museum collection
Norway Greve & Nielsen, 1991
Latvia Karpa, 2008
Romania Ceianu, I. (1989).
Finland Kahanpää, J., & Stuke, J.-H. (2014) (also in online key at http://www.elisan...ropezidae/)
Central European Russia Ozerov, 1987
Belgium Grootaert, 1991
Lithuania Bernotiene, R. (2006)

It's worth going back for more photographs and a specimen, I wish I could join you.

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
