Hi

I found for the first time an orange fly. It was so weird. The eyes are almost purple-orange (in photo the eyes would can be much better...)

Psilidae family? Not sure...

Taken today - very hot (more 30?C here) in Silgueiros - VISEU - PORTUGAL

Possibly Sapromyza of the Lauxaniidae.

Only strengthens my idea of Sapromyza.

I agree with Paul (for oncePfft), this is Sapromyza
