 Old photos, 26_04_2015, near Bácsborista - Kelebia, southern Hungary. Relatively common in late spring in the region on sand.

Can something more be said about its ID?

Thank you in advance!

Greetings,
Henrik

 Hi,

Cheilosia proxima group? Hairy eyes, bare face, rows of hairs on the tergites. Several species that I right now do not know by heart to seperate based on the pictures alone.

Best,
Jonne

 Looks like it is Ch. proxima itself, unless I made a mistake while using this key:

Pipunculidae from Mongolia! I am looking for specialist who is committed to ID these. There will be a lot of material coming from my expeditions.
