Greetings!

This fly was found dead in a house in East-Hungary. What could it be?

Hi!

CSI goes furtherGrin That's how I found the fly. Currently I'm unable to take more photos, I'm not where my preparated flies are...

Thanks for the help from both of you!

So I am ready to finish the ID and make clear her systematic level and name of species.
It's not Eccoptomera Sad but Oecothea !.
Oecothea fenestralis (Fall.)
Finally the character of mid tibia (spines in the midle part) was the answer of the genus name.

Thank you very much! I looked the species up in a book, it says that the species is also quite common in Hungary.

Best regards,

Walter
