Hi,

I found this dead fly next to a window. Juergen said that it could possibly belong to genus Lonchaeidae. Is this correct?

Best wishes
Benedikt

Lonchaeidae is a family, not genus.

It is not a longaeid. There are flies like this in Chloropidae and Milichiidae - can't quite remember to which family this particular fly belongs to. I'd guess Chloropidae.
