Hello,
I photographed this fly in Saxony, Germany on Mai 14th 2021.
Is it possible to identify Form this photo?

Thanks in advance
Beate

You need, especially concerning flies of difficult families, photos from all sides, showing the position of bristles of all legs and the lateral thorax, the facial bristles, the shape of the male genital... See what characters should be known for identifying Anthomyiidae: https://www.dipte...ummies.pdf. Perhaps somebody will suggest a genus, but identification from photos is extremely difficult in that family. I capitulate...
Regards, Sundew
