Hello,

I photographed this fly on the seashore in Kendwa, Zanzibar (Tanzania), on February 25th 2023. I think it's a Dolichopodidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

I agree with Thinophilini of some kind, probably Thinophilus

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
