Hi,

a few days ago. I took a picture of a medium-sized long-legged fly on a leaf.
I don't really have an idea what family that could be. Is it possible to get a (partial?) determination from the picture?

Germany, Southern Bavaria, Garden in Munich (-West), 25.09.2023, app. 6-8 mm

Greetings, Uli

Oh yes, thank you Jürgen. Now I have remembered that I in my second thread here I had an identification of Chrysopilus laetusSmile. That might be an option here as well.
