Hello,

sorry for the bad pictures. A 7-8 mm fly from the forestborder this afternoon (northwest Germany). Is this Kirbya moerens? I did not find that species for 6 years now...

Thanks a lot, Theo!

@John: Seems to be still rather rare here, too.

Yes, Juergen, you are on its northern border, but it is heading north rather rapidly !

Berlin is still too northern, I guess.
