Hello,

I photographed this fly in the Lecceta di Torino di Sangro Nature Reserve (CH), Italy, 60m a.s.l. on October 17th 2024. I think it is a Suillia, but is it possible to identify its species based on these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

It's a male, but making a proper ID without a specimen under a microscope is impossible :-(. Suillia sp.

Thank you anyway! Unfortunately I didn't collect it.
