This tiny, but beautiful bronze fly seemed to choose the spot where I was looking for weefils to start ovipositioning before my eyes. Does it have a name?   |

Yes, it has a name, and I can put you in the right direction! It belongs to the family Sepsidae, and I know it is a difficult family to identify to genus and species, especially from a picture. But maybe there are people who can tell you more! Greetings, Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

As a matter of fact Gerard, this one's genus name is quite easy. The spot in the wing immediately mark it as a species of Sepsis. I will have to sit down and check for the species name, but I think it is possible to get that, too.
