Hello everybody,

I think, this should be a Paragus sp., maybe bicolor or flammeus? And can someone determine it even closer? Length about 5 mm. These little flies I see seldom, but exclusively on the flowers of Pastinaca sativa.

Location: Germany, Rhineland-Palatinum, 53572 Unkel, river Rhine valley, Stux hill, dry and warm habitat (grapeyards), 26. 07. 2017.

Thanks in advance,m

Michael
