Hello,
today I found this fly in Germany, Saxony. Is it an Ernestia and is species ID possible?
Thank you, Marion

I would guess Linnaemya but it would be nice to see it from the side. :)

Thank you, Chris. Unfortunately, this fly wasn´t patient and didn´t allow any side view.

Here is a bad picture from the same place taken 3 min later. It is propably not the same specimen, but may belong to the same species. The white on the antenna looks similar.

I can't see the projecting mouth edge but the basicosta is pale so I would still favour Linnaemya :)
