Is this a male Azelia sp? Or something else? Can more be said? Only one image.

Not Azelia, I'd say Anthomyiidae

If so, this must be a distinctive genus. Nikita, can you suggest a genus?

This is not a Muscidae to me. I think we can clearly see the anal vein reaching the wing margin. For the dc I don't know, but in the gallery, there is some Anthomyiidae which have 3 strong dc and a a weaker one in fourth position, much hair-like, that which could be the case here.

By it's general black and white appearance it might be a species of Eustalomyia. But I have compared it with all the european species, and it just does not agree with the scutal pattern. I am afrain I can't take this any further without some structural details. A specimen under the microscope would immediately lead to an answer, which might be obvious or really amazing! |

Thx for the nice discussion. Unfortunately this smallish fly got away even before allowing a lateral shot. I hope I can refind it, but this is not a common species unfortunately.
