Hi

Switzerland, (Schindellegi), 26.05.2012, 750 msm, about 4 km away from Lake Zurich, edge of wood
In comparison with pics from Gallery I found Myoleja lucida? Could this be the correct ID? A female?

I would be happy about correction/confirmation. Thanks a lot.
Kind regards, Brigitte

Yes, for sure, a female of Myoleja lucida Fallen. The only specimens in my collection I collected also in Switzerland.

Hi Valery

Thanks a lot for your confirmation Valery. Nice that you have a Switzerland specimens!
I saw this little fly rarely and when then often out of my reach. Beautiful fly with a beautiful dance.

Greetings from Switzerland
