Thanks, Theo! Actually, the dichoptic eyes were my first clue to dismiss scolopaceus  But then, at half past one in the night, I was too late for me to dive deeper (I used the Rhagionid key from van Veen, where apparently latipennis is not listed). The habitat is an old oak forest in Solling (southern Lower Saxony) Cheers, Lorin Font Color All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

Great you spotted it. Latipennis is a strictly central European species. Locality fits nicely. By the book ! https://jeugdbondsuitgeverij.nl/product/families-of-flies-with-three-pulvilli/ |
