Hello,
after the post about the Medera male identified by Igor Grichanov as media (https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.p ... _id=106244), here is what could be the female.
This one was found in my garden the 14 05 2022 at Luçon (85400), west of France.
Body length : 3,3 mm.

Do you agree ?
If you need other picture, the fly is always in alcohol.

Thanks by avance.

Best regards .

Christian

Thank you very much Igor for your answer..Smile

Do you want I send you the couple (in alcohol) to be sure of the identity?
While I'm at it I can add a specimen that you had identified as Medetera male group jacula to get species if possible.

Best regards.
