Hello, I found this 5 mm female tonight at the fruit bait in our garden (northwest Germany). Muscidae? Anthomyiidae?

Anthomyiidae. Seems to have more than the usual number of p/pd on t2. If memory serves, some Delia and Botanophila have those extra bristles. |

Those extra bristles are also possible in more genera. This seems Lasiomma to me... And Jürgen...you photographed already many female Lasiomma in the past, so compare this one to your other photos and you will probable see the resembles in outer characters. Also....Lasiomma seems to be a hardy fly, which still can be found in these cold months. A very common species is Lasiomma seminitidum...... Johanna |

Many thanks, Johanna! Yes, I may have taken photos of several Lasiomma, but that's long ago, and for this fly I did not find any similarity to anything I had seen, yet - except to a totally different family... The head and thorax of this fly really reminded me of a small Sarcophagidae with its stripes and red eyes  (of cause the wing venation did not)...
