Possibly Alliopsis, a predatory Anthomyiidae often with narrow frons. The wing appears to belong to Sciaridae, but most Sciaridae are more uniformly black. |

Very interesting behaviour of an Antho! I cropped a part of the wing of Fig. 1 that shows nicely that the anal vein reaches the wing margin. That character rules out Muscidae. Sundew attached the following image:  [61.42Kb] |

Thanks you very much John and Sundew ! I was also thinking something close to Sciaridae for the prey And Thanks you very much for the criteria to rule out the Muscidae Sundew !  |
