I photographed it at Villanua, Huesca, Aragon, Spain. in medium Pyrenees, about 900 meters high. Habitat: Fir (Abies alba) forest. Into the forest, in the shadow. The fly sizes about 6-7 mm long.

Your fly reminds me Achanthiptera rohrelliformis with this thorax dusting.

Thanks Stephane!!

Somebody are more sure? The earen't images in Google. It's in the gallery? In what family?

---

Well, I found it

http://www.diptera.info/photogallery.php?photo_id=1836

Really looks very similar, but in the gallery's picture, the thorax have silver marks as a continueation of the silver marks of the head, between the eyes...

More opinions?

Thanks

Thanks Paul... I's the same picture than the gallery.

And, looking the post called "So pretty"... It can't be a newly-emerged Mydaea?

Don't worry Isidro, your pretty fly is more pretty and much more rare - it is really Achanthiptera rohrelliformis!
