Hi!

Last week on Heracleum near forest (northwest Germany), about 7 mm. I think, Bellardia again (?).

Hi!

This fly is so pretty, I give it one more try... I guess it is not a Muscid (Dasyphora)?

My guess is female Protocalliphora azurea.

Very interesting! I never had that genus/species and did not take it into account. Thanks a lot!

I agree with Stephane, Protocalliphora female.
