First time I've seen this fly. Small, around 3,5 mm. Charca de Suarez wetland.

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Looks very interesting. I am not familiar with the Lauxaniidae from Spain, but when I look at the photo I have to think of species as Sapromyza bentajui or similar, but, as far as I know, these are only known from the Canary Islands. Did you collect specimens?
