Hello
for this fly (body length 4,9 mm.) with a strange head, found in an urban garden on 6 September, we have arrived at the genus Setacera.

Locality : Luçon, west of France, near La Rochelle

Do you agree and do you think it is possible to get species?

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Sincerely

Christian

From what I can see, this looks like Setacera micans.
