I spotted this approximately 10-12mm large fly in the forest on 28.09.2023 in Germany, Baden Württemberg.
What is it?
Thank you and best regards
Bernd

Scathophaga spurca Meigen, 1826 is the valid name for Scathophaga suilla auct. nec (Fabricius, 1794). But this female has anterodorsal bristles on femur 3 and could not be S. spurca. My choice is S. inquinata.
