An interesting species of Linnaemyia indeed, don't recognize it.

I have the specimen with me, but as you can see it's very durty. Do you think I should put it in alchool?

Best way to go is to pin it on an insect pin.
Putting in alcohol is really second choice.

Eventually, we will need to expose the genitalia (it seems to be a male)
