Hello! This 8-10 mm fly came to the light in our garden yesterday night (Ostwestfalen/Germany). Is this Scatophaga suilla again? Thanks in advance!

Juergen, I think it is S. lutaria. Compare with my S. lutaria (ID - Andrey Ozerov, West Turkey, 20 Dec). Nikita Nikita Vikhrev attached the following image:  [62.12Kb] Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I did not know that species, yet. I was not very convinced of my S. suilla assumption (only because it had the reddish antennae like it). The colouring, especially of the legs, seemed different. But it does match your photo of S. lutaria quite well!
