Here's another result of today's fly hunting (fruitful yet exhaustive because of all of these heat and humidity; even Culicidae seem to be not very happy with it, Tabanidae being more abundant - I'm wearing marks of their bites).

June 24, 2006.
Size 3mm. Maybe... Pallopteridae again?!...

Palloptera umbrellatarum. The characteristic round dark spot on at the center of the anal vein is faintly visible in the 2nd photo.

Hi Dima,

I totally agree with Kahis. Palloptera umbellatarum is a rather common pallopterid. There is another species (i.e. Palloptera modesta) that looks quite similar. However in Palloptera modesta there is no spot on the anal vein and it has hairs on the mesopleuron.
