Hello I think of Beris with a scutellum of four spines. I have the second specimen which are very damaged with five spines. I find geniculata. Size 6,5 mm. pic1 christoophe attached the following image:  [117.33Kb] |

No, it is not geniculata; Geniculata has yellow knees. I think it is fuscipes. The legs are very dark, except the bases of the femora. Do you have a good dorsal photo of the fly? ruud van der weele rvanderweele@gmail.com |

Difficult to make a good photo with the reflections.

It is weird, I cannot see well the gap between the eyes. But, again, given the legs, it is fuscipes.
