Pegomyia is Anthomyiidae. This fly has a plumose arista. As far as I know Pegomyia has no plumose arista. And Pegomyia has a much more flatten abdomen. Somewhere in Phaonia? I'm not sure. St?phane will fix me by sure. Or Nikita. |

Dear Jorge, My reply and your edit "crossed" each other. Herewith another picture, perhaps not of the same animal, but I think of the same genus. Does it help? Best regards, Niek Niek van Wijk attached the following image:  [110.46Kb] |

 I see a plumose arista. I thought that Pegomyia had no plumose arista. |

aha!! the abdomen is really very flattened!  the arista is not plumose as I thought! St?phane is right as always. |

yes. I saw it clearly in second photo.  The first photo mistaked me because the abdomen seemed to me so blunt! but it is not. thanks, St?phane. |
