Hi, Id needed for this very small (maybe 2 mm), nicely colored fly, that kept "twitching" its wings. Found in SW Sweden. Many thanks Markus  Also link: http://www.pbase.com/image/144586700 Edited by Markus L on 07-07-2012 19:37 |

Great, that fits perfectly Can you tell the species as well? Looks a lot like photos of Sepsis fulgens, which seems to be a common species here. |
