Hi,
Today I saw this small Opomyzid. It recalls Geomyza but is not the common G. tripunctata, as the wing tips are not dark. so I really wonder what species I have found.
Many thanks, Sundew

Oha - something completely different! I re-checked all my pics, but the plumose aristae were out of focus in all of them. If I had noticed them, Opomyzids would not have come into my mind, of course. So I'll change the title - many thanks indeed!
Regards, Sundew
