Hi!

Sorry for the bad picture quality. I took this (only) shot at a shadowy forest path last week (northwest Germany). About 5-6 mm. Is it a Heleomyzid? And is at least a genus ID possible? Thanks!

Hello, Andrzej!

Ah, thanks! I was a little bit suspecting that, but could not find the typical strong bristles at the legs (maybe because the pic is too bad...).
