Dear all,

on 12th of June 2020 I found this fly on a fence in north Berlin, Germany. Did I identify it correctly as Platystoma lugubre?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Best regards,
Adrian

Here is a picture of the habitat. I found it sitting on the fence around a deserted building area.

Red basitarsi should make it P. lugubre. P. seminationis has completely black feet.
BTW, nice to hear from you after a long time. Regards, Sundew
