Hello,

I photographed this fly in the garden on Rose today. Unfortunately I can't say how big it was, but I would say not too big and not too small. Could this be a fly from the genus Phryxe?

Hi Waldgeist,

I have looked at a few pictures on the internet, it
could also be this species. It is very difficult to identify flies.

Close, but Blepharipa is spring genus,

This is Sturmia bella, autumn species .
