Hello everybody,

Here is another ID request. I photographed this tiny fly in Austria, august 2007 in a swamp (but very dry at that time). Could anyone put a name onto it?
Thanks in advance

Arista looks white so it could be Oscinella maura, Chloropidae.

Thanks both, now I see that indeed the red thing is a mite attached!
