Mycetophila, probably a female of the signata group.

Oh dear, I was way off on this one, even in the wrong tribe. awkward

It looks like the first Dutch record of Brachypeza bisignata. Grin

In my own defense: Such extensive markings in Exechiini in our region are quite uncommon. Wink

That's good news Paul! Again a new species. No Brachypeza species in the Netherlands yet, I think (?) And as for the first name you mentioned , the Mycetophila, You are forgiven Wink
