Empidid fly

Hi,

I have photographed this black fly in a meadow 40km west of Paris. I focused on the eyes and unfortunately most of the body is out of focus.
But it has a very unusual and very marked humpback so maybe it is a generic value.
The flower is a dandelion.
Any idea about its identity?
Thanks,
FRV

Hi FRV

It is aa Empididae s.l.
Hunchback fly is reserved for Acroceridae.
So change the title and wait for Empididologists

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
