Hello, Pierre Duhem : France : Bessans : 73480 : 08/08/2024 Altitude : 1680 m - Taille : 6-7 mm Réf. : 349311 I can't find a match for this critter in the Lauxaniidae family, with yellow head, scutellum and abdomen, grey thorax and dark apex of antenna. Does this ring a bell for some of you? Thanks in advance. Pierre Duhem |

Try a Pherbellia sp (Sciomyzidae): https://diptera.i...to_id=1635 |

Not Minettia because it lacks a postsutural intra-alar bristle. Not Pherbellia because it has 3 pairs of postsutural dorsocentrals and convergent postocellar bristles. |

Check in Heteromyzinae, which tend to lack the costal spines typical of Heleomyzidae. |

The bicolored and elongated postpedicel and also the anepisternal seta exlude this specimen from Heleomyzidae ...
