Hi everybody,

Always trying to ID every fly I come across in my garden but knowing most of them aren't really ID-able... still I can't stop trying....

Need help with this one: I actually have no idee. Can anyone make something out of this photograph? Thanks!

Thanks Kahis! Looking through the gallery pictures of Chloropidae I came across the Thaumatomyia species. I think you're spot on!
Best regards,
