Hello,
I found this beautiful fly on August, 6th, in Eich-Gimbsheim, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany on a meadow between a large reed area and a lake. It measured nearly 1 cm. Can someone help me with identifying the species (if possible)? :)
Kind regards,
Kathrin

I think Hylemya nigrimana (Anthomyiidae)
Can you make a crop of the head, to see if the arista is long haired....?
Only to be 100% sure

Hello Joke,
here is the crop :). It looks aweful but I see some long hair on the arista.
Kind regards,
