Apparent size with wings, about 7-8 mm. When taking photographs, the fly had a slight greenish yellow now not observed. Thanks in advance for any help!

See http://www.dipter...d_id=30535 for a discussion of the characters. These flies fooled me very often... Regards, Sundew Edited by Sundew on 08-09-2015 10:52
