I collected this Heleomyzidae last week in Yerseke, the Netherlands. By first sight I thought of Eccoptomera, but it can't be, because there are bristles on t2. Maybe Oecothea?? I hope someone can tell me the genus with these pictures :

BTW, in case you have in your collection some Eccoptomera's I will be interested in seeing them. I have seen now all specimens in Leiden. I would like to have more information about the occurrence before writing a paper in Faunistische Mededelingen about the Eccoptomera's and Oecothea's from the Netherlands.

and I hate the word "afval-vlieg", but that is my problem.

I'm afraid I won't have them in my collection, but I will look for you. Thanks for identification!
P.S. I never use Dutch 'fly names', but 'afvalvlieg' isn't very appropriate indeed.
