Thanks Jan, Iain. I was completely fooled by the black knob on the haltere.

It has an intra-alar bristle and dark halteres, so it is likely one of the dark-colored Minettia that we call the obscura group in America and I think go under the name Frendelia in Europe.

Thanks John. Yes, Paul Beuk has confirmed via Facebook that it is Minettia longipennis.
