It's not decora and not pennipes, I think - but I cannot tell the species - it's in the group with E. pennipes. Female decora you can find here: https://diptera.i...d_id=88902 Greetings, Eric |

Ok, thank you for your reply. Indeed, my specimen seems different from the one you indicated. It remains to be seen whether anyone can take the identification further. |
