Hi,

on the water's edge of a village pond I caught this fly. I don't see bristles on the merons, so I am assuming it is a member of Muscidae?

Found near Lake Neusiedl, Burgenland (Austria) in July

Cheers,
Lorin

All requests are from the urban area of Vienna, if not otherwise stated.

My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.
