Hello,
This fly was found at an altitude of 2,784 m (Pic du Canigou, Pyrénées).
According to the Tschorsnig key, it should be a
Nowickia (completely black legs).
After:
1. Tergite 2 without marginal setae
3. Arista between 0.6 and 0.9 times the antenna length (not sure due to perspective!)
6. Black hairs on the cheeks ==>
Nowickia strobeli (or
strobelii)
What do you think, please?

I'd love to see the genitalia.
Arista looks long to me and I can't tell colour of palpus. Might be a male atripalpis.
