Hello,

this ~7mm fly is from last october from the Bretagne (france, near Lancieux). It was rather near to the sea between brown algae and mussels. What is it? Muscidae?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi,
I have a F.tergina/maritima as well...
How to distinguish them?

The protubercle on femur 3 is important I read. Mine has a protubercle on the inner side of femur 3, adpressed to the femur, pointed backward with a rather blunt tip.

Thank you
Jonas
