I observed this fly in late April in an oak forest in NE Hungary. Is this an odd Lonchaeid? Or maybe a Milichiid fly?

Milichiidae. Ask Irina Brake.

It looks like a Milichia male, probably Milichia ludens, same as
http://www.dipter...ost_122272. However, in Hungary there is a similar species, Milichia pseudoludens, which is also a possibility.

Paul and Irina, thank you for your help. Next time i try to catch this fly, but this species is not very commonly found by me.
