Definitely a male Villa, but I don't recognise the species.

Villa specimens are rather variable, but this would be a very strange greyish V. modesta. I suspect it is something more interesting, but less known Smile

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
