Hello diptera-reader,

Last week I saw this kind of diptera on mushrooms in the Amsterdam woodforest.
I like to know what kind of diptera this is..
Perhaps Phaonia pallida? (red/orange coloured body) or is this fly(the head&body) too smalll for Phaonia species.
Size: 8-10 mm

I can't find information about occuration of Phaonia pallida in the Netherlands, is it a common fly?

Robert
