I think you are right. Sometimes it is difficult to tell Hammerschmidtia from some Brachyopa species, but Hammerschmidtia should have a longer body, which your specimen has. There should be also some differences in venation of wings, but I am not able to see it when wings folded. |

Thanks Treebeard! This longer abdomen was my hint, too, the Brachyopas always look much shorter (I know only from pictures). Best greetings Rupert |

I agree that the slender abdomen is very different from what you find in Brachyopa. Can't se any other option than Hammerschmidtia. |
