Hi, I identified this female as Medina luctuosa. On the left fore tibia it has 2 posterior setae, on the right fore tibia it has just 1 posterior seta (but the knob of the haltere is dark and the band of dusting is interrupted). Ventral sides of tergites 3 and 4 without areas of dense small spines and tergite 7 without a strong notch. Do you agree?

Despite your great effort, it is hard to judge the genitalia.

It is indeed either luctuosa or separata. The lateral shot of the genitalia tends to separata, but the posterior view definitely tends to luctuosa.

Thanks Theo. I attach 4 more photos of the tip of the abdomen from different angles. I hope it helps.

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
