Hello!

A 5 mm fly from 5th November at the light (northwest Germany). Is it Eccoptomera? Possible to say more? Thanks in advance!

You should to shoot the hind femur in lateral view. It is Eccoptomera but at time nothing more ... What about the sex ?. The number of preapical britles on mid tibia is unknown.
How big are the genae ? and how about scutellum (haired ?).

Thanks a lot for your remarks, but I could only make two or three pics from this angle, then the fly was away Frown. Here is a less compressed JPG (156 KB ), that's the best I could get. But I am afraid, that will not help much more...

Probably two preapicals on the mid tibia. The presence of its will narrow the species level Smile.
With all probability (ca 99,99%) E. pallescens.
