Hello,

Could this female be a Neomochtherus pallipes ?

It could be although it looks slightly different. We need to the belly of the abdomen to be sure.

That is an option, but this fly looks rather small though. A flavipes is usually larger than 20 mm.

I add picture which help me to measure her.
There may be a little measurement error, but she was not larger than 20 mm !

I have in collection A. flavipes. Indeed this species is large. A. confused is smaller, but on these photos difficult to say.

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
