Hello!

Again I can't even decide, which family Sad. This one was rather large (10 mm) and long winged like the supposed Scatophaga in one of my previous postings and sat at the same tree in our garden (with rotting banana bait) yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany). But it seems not to be a Scatophagid, looks like a rather slender Heleomyzid. Or is it perhaps Dryomyza flaveola??? Thanks for any hints!

Unfortunately not a Heleomyzid !. Without vibrissa and costal spines Sad.

Thanks a lot! Then my last guess was the best... Wink. I often had found Neuroctena anilis here in the garden, but not Dryomyza flaveola.
