Hello!

This fly I found two days ago here in Ostwestfalen/Germany on a meadow near a forest. Is it a Sciomyzidae? Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Doesn't seem to be the abundant Coremacera marginata, that's why I asked.

Best regards,
Jürgen

It is definitely not Coremacera marginata, because of the yellow legs.
C. fabricii has yellow legs, but I guess this one could in the a nearby genus as Euthycera.
But again, I can't tell you

A specialist's opinion would be welcome, but it looks like Pherbina coryleti to me. Louis

Looking for Pherbina image I found this one.
It isn't Pherbina. I think, it is Limnia unguicornis.

I agree with Nikita - Limnia. Either unguicornis or paludicola, it's pretty much impossible to say from a picture for males and we don't know which sex this fly is.

Thanks a lot! Finally this over one year old picture gets a correct name :-).
