Azelia seems to me correct, congratulations.
Neither nebulosa nor cilipes. Some uncommon to me species, may be aterrima or gibbera...

A.gibbera is never seen in the Netherlands, so I put it for now away as Azelia cf aterrima
I must have catch the fly (what I can remember), so I wil look if I can find it and study it under the micros.
I thought is was a very common fly and did not give it much attention.....oh oh Angry

Thanks Joke
