After another quiet spell, I've accumulated a few flies I'd like to get your collective advice on, starting with this which I think may be a Dolicophus, photographed this morning in a pinewood, near Rome, Italy. About 4 mm long.

Thanks Sarah.

It is a Dolichopus as you say, but proceeding to species level may be impossible since many crucial characters are not visible.

PS. Nice to see you around!
