Looks very typical but does not ring a bell. The arista is plumose , for starters ? In which case it must be some Dexiini, like Billaea. Theo |

It's a very nice fly but it doesn't ring any bells here either - it needs keying through the Central European key  |

I've got it. It is Billaea kolomyetzi, a rare species from Siberia and eastern Europe. I've got it from Estonia. A real good find !! Theo |

You're welcome. As said, I got it from Estonia, so it is not a total surprise. But it is very rare in Europe everywhere. Theo |
