Hi Volkmar, it is a Bombylius (vein R-M approx. at mid of discal cell). But I cannot see enough (colour of femora, bristles on wingbase) to name the species.

Probably B. venosus female, but this is a difficult group. At the minimum we should see if there a re strong black hairs behind the eye. Whixh is not visible here.
