This is probably a Sepsidae sp!? From midwest Sweden 2006-10-12. I think the size might have been something like 5-6 mm. One thing I noticed on this fly that I hadn't thought of before - the wing pattern isn't symmetrical, i.e. wing venation isn't the same on both wings.
Edit: Changed subject (Sepsidae sp)

Hello
What means dc in "1 pair of dc setas"
It's the two setae on the border of the thorax ?

Hi Louis.
I attached image of fly with two dc (source - http://kyotofly.kit.jp/JDD/subwin/dorsal/tdr_dorso_centrals.gif)
All European Sepsis have same as at image two pair dc, Sepsis punctum - only one hind pair.

Vi kanske ska h?lla oss till engelska h?r eller ...?
Is it possible to tell what gender it is? Perhaps we need to see the end of the abdomen to know?

It is male, tergit III with lateral setas.
