Hallo again,

can anybody recognize the species of this fly? It was very small, about 3 mm, and I found it today on a willow in Southern Germany about 900 m high. It was situated in the shadow, so only with the help of digital manipulation I could make some details visible.

Many thanks for your interest
Siga
