In America we only have one similar-looking genus with bristles on mid tibia: Oecothea.

It should be probably Oecothea fenestralis species-group. It is the most difficult species-complex. I am still looking for material from North Russia of such specimens preserved in alcohol for DNA analysis. Maybe do you have the possibility to collect some males and females to send for these studies?

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
