No on-line key that I know of, but Freeman's 1993 Royal Ent. Soc. Handbook (a bit out of date, but still useful - there have been lots of species added new to Britain since) is available for only £2.00 from the RES - see:

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
