Hello,
this little male fly (2,1 mm.) was found in the garden (05 05 2024) on Cistus salviaefolius.
Locality : Luçon 85400,near La Rochelle.West of France.

Drosophilidae was suggested , Scaptomyza, perhaps ?
Is it possible to get species ?

I can take photos of the genitalia if you need

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Regards.

Christian

Not a drosophilid, perhaps Ephydridae. Is the anal vein developed or not?

Probably subfamily Hydrellinae.

Hello,
thank you very much Jan Maca and John Carr for your reply.

No, the anal vein is not developed.

Is it possible to go further with this picture ?

Best regards.
