 Good morning,
this Fly was collected at 07 August 2023, Germany, Saarland, on the edge of a water barrel in my garden, moved his fore legs in circles like washing dishes with two hands.
I think its Sciomyzidae, Pherbellia annulipes, male but I dont key it.
Can anyone agree or disagree?

thanks in advance
