Looking through the Sarc gallery I found resemblance to Macronycha. Is this correct and / or could it be ID'd further?
Quite a restless fly this was. Moved around a lot and gave me a hard time to get any photos :)
Size: ~8mm
Date: 12 July 2009
Location: Wooden railing around pond (Helsingborg, Sweden)
Thanks!

Macronychia is correct. With these pictures I cannot identify to species level. It is a difficult genus with some species undescribed and some taxonomic problems.

Thank you Liekele. I'm quite happy with getting the genus correct. Doesn't happen every day :D
