Hello,

two older photos from spring 2020, which I had stored as Eudasyphora cyanicolor. When I'm looking at them now, I'm not convinced anymore (M-vein too strongly bent?). Could it be a Calliphorid?

Ca. 6 mm, at forestborder (northwest Germany).

Hi Jürgen, I cannot see the acrs and dcs but it's probably a Neomyia.

Thanks, Eric. But then it is not N. cornicina . I have never seen any bluish shine on that species.
