Species found 30.10.17 in Freiburg (Elbe), Germany.
Found on sunny stairs, close to some sheep on an embankment.
Any comment appreciated.

Thanks Niels-Jan,
female is obvious. Any explanation for the Polietes versus Helina. Just to learn the difference.
And if Polietes any clue for the subspecies or is a photo not enough?
Cheers, Lars

In Polietes the dm-Cu crossvein is very slanted, almost parallel to the posterior wing margin. Also, in Polietes there are strong presutural acr. and a strong pd in distal third of hind tibia (as in Phaonia). On you picture, only the first clue is visible.
Stephane.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
