The legs look wrong for Clinohelea. Quoting Grogan and Wirth (1975): "Femora slender, occasionally with up to four spines; 4th tarsomere of at least mid and hind legs deeply bilobed, each lobe ending in a stout blunt spine and smaller spines; fore 5th tarsomere greatly swollen in both sexes; fore claws equal, mid and hind very unequal in female; all claws equal in male." https://scholarsa...35/iss3/4/

The ventral spines on the last tarsal segments rule out both Clinohelea and Palpomyia. I think it is Mallochohelea inermis, female.

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
