Hi,
This minute fly waved its wings on a grass blade today, but it seems to be no Sepsid. I guess it is Geomyza tripunctata (Opomyzidae). What do you say?
Thanks, Sundew
PS. On the upper left, there is a Calliopum (Lauxaniidae) for comparison. On the upper right, an animal smaller than the black fly under consideration is to be seen. It possibly belongs to the Hymenoptera, but I doubt that it can be identified (too small for my camera).
Sundew attached the following image:

Yes, no doubt, a female of Geomyza tripunctata.

Wow - I found the right name for a tiny fly myself! Now I am quite proud. However, it happened by chance while looking over the gallery that I stopped at a Geomyza pic and thought: Hey, that's my little black one from today! Anyhow, many thanks to both of you for confirmation.
Greetings, Sundew

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
