Berlin - November - 2017
I am just guessing based upon abdominal pattern, which is visible in the attached photo. The dark lines on tergite 3 appear to be triangular but i think that this is a dark area of the wing. I noticed an old post about limbata which led me to kuntzei and the pattern seems to fit. could it be kuntzei?
Best wishes,
John

The triangular spots are on the abdomen; consequently the fly is Drosophila histrio.

Thank you, Jan. For some reason i thought that the triangle was a dark spot on the wing. Thank you for correcting me and identifying the fly.
Unfortunately, the photos are not very good because my lens ring was broken at the time. I didn't know until november. I had to enact my warranty to get the lens repaired. I didn't get it back until April of the following year.
