Pictures taken on May 05, 2006, Naro-Fominsk, Moscow region, Russia.
Size 4-5mm as far as I can remember.
Wet habitat, partially still covered with water from melted snow, but it's marshy throughout the year.

Well, family Diastatidae seems to be an excellent suggestion for this one. Jan Willem?

Hi,

I totally agree with Paul Smile. I will check later if it is possible to give a species name.

Paul, according Diptera of European part of Russia it has to be D. nebulosa = (d. ornata), but not D. adusta = (D. unipunctata).
What fail, your memory or my few expirience?

I guess my memory. D. ornata sounds fine to me. Grin

Hi,

I would go for Diastata nebulosa althoug it is a bit difficult to see all details of the wings.
According to www.faunaeur.org (http://www.faunae...p?id=60330) D. nebulosa and D. ornata are both valid species!
