 Found on 10_04_2016, near Pákozd, Hungary. Is it possible to say something more about its ID?

 Thank you! However, I think plumes are much stronger on the legs (and also present on the middle leg) in the case of E. pennipes. Additionally, color also seems different, this sp. is more greyish.

 I have the same concerns - and a very similar fly (mine has the short plumes on the mid femora,, too). I tried to find it and the closed was E. pennipes, but there are too many different characters... Hopefully someone takes pity on us Wink
