Hello!

I have no idea, where to put this 3 mm fly from a hedge yesterday afternoon (northwest Germany).

It seemed too small and slender for Anthomyiidae. A different category, even compared to small Anthomyiids.

Many thanks! I am again and again astonished, how small and slender Muscids can be... I did not take that family into account.
