 Found this among my photo's from July 2018. Some Scatella sp. I guess. Anyone "guess" any further or better?

 A Limnellia - either (probably) surturi or quadrata. The wing markings are not typical for either species, but living on desolate windswept islands tends to induce strange forms among the inhabitants - you must have noticed!

 Thanks for that Tony. I assume you mean that it's the British Isles that are desolate and windswept and true there are some strange forms in and around Norfolk. You must have noticed! CoolWink

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
