Hello,

I have found this tiny fly (2,5 mm length) today. I have thought that they were the same species that I found in June (see Platypygus ridibundus in gallery: http://www.dipter...lbum_id=93). But later in the PC I see it's obviously a species different.

Location: Sierra Nevada, Granada, Spain. 800 m. altitude.

This is a Mythicomyiidae? A kind of Bombyliidae?
