Hi, can this be determined? It was 2.3 mm long, in Debrecen, near the plains, in forest, on Acer platanoides flower.

Platypalpus, but the species I can tell not. There are just too many details that are slightly out of focus or unvisible to identify it. Some visible characters point in one direction, others point in yet another direction. P. exilis is one of the more common yellow species but, like several other yellow species, it should have very dark last tarsal segments. Other species are ruled out because the colour of the antennae does not match, the relative length of the third antennal segment and the arista are off, etc. If you have a specimen, now, then I can deal with it.

If you have male and female... Some of the yellow species are sexually dimorphic and if this species is, well, it might help us a good deal in identifying the species.
