Hi,

this very very small fly does not have plumouse ariasta but it really looks like Ephydridae anyway. July 18. 2008 Helsinki, Finland.

Abdomen partly shining black, wings without spots - only crossveins darkened, legs completely yellow - it is to be Philyrgia flavipes (this works if there are no velvety-balck spots on scutellum as I hope?). The best picture for all Ephydridae - correct lateral photo to see head in profile.

No black spots so thank You. A new species for me again :)
