 Hi,

I have photographed this insect in Asturias (Spain), mid-August. Alt. 1400m asl.
Body length around 5mm (without the "feathery tail".
Do you have any idea about its identity?
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
FRV

 Thank you very much Günther. There is a strong sexual dimorphism!

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
