This fly reared from the pupae. It is really Fannia sp. ?

Try to address the second question to the Forum "adults" not "eggs, larvae and pupae"now.

Projection on inside of tibia 2 could be Fannia scalaris as with a previous thread of minehttp://www.dipter...ost_120555
Not sure though...just guessing as per usual.

Correct, Roger, F.scalaris (with sma-a-ale question mark, to be sure I'd prefer to see hooked spines on mid coxae).
Alexandru, you can find these spines yourself, see attached image.

Yes, mites like to use Dipterairways for traveling, Aircoleoptera too...
