Interesting fly with whitish apex of wing. Body length 4 mm. I don/t have any idea, even family doesn't recognize.
Eastern Poland, 14.05. Photo taken by my friend.

Big surprise for me. Doesn't looks like typical tachinid.
I suspect C.pygmaea, because black antennae.
Thanks a lot

You also have Melanophora roralis with similar wing, but the legs are black.

The colouration of legs is surprisingly variable.
