Hi, found this 4 mm Tachinid (?) on 190728 in my garden (Ansbach, DE-Middle-Franconia, near old deciduous forest) and I wonder if it is a Phytomyoptera minutissima (or zonella)?
Any help is very much appreciated!

Thanks, Eric

Hi, here's another image showing better the red frontal vitta and long intra-alars.
Possible to be Phytomyptera/Elfia?

Thanks, Eric

In these cases, when you have one very obvious feature but are otherwise lost, it might be very convenient to use www.tachinidae.eu.

Hi Theo, I know the Mosch Web (tachinidae.eu) and it helped me a lot already. In this case, I was lost, and I will now try to find out why.

Thank you and greetings, Eric
