Hello!

I needed a long time searching this little (2,5-3 mm) animal among the Empididae and Hybotidae in the gallery - the one that mostly resembled it, was the last one of all... Wink: Trichinomyia. Is that correct? Visited the light tonight in our garden (Ostwestfalen/Germany).

Hi,

Trichinomyia flavipes (female) is correct.

Regards,

Igor

Thanks! I as a layman can't decide, who's wrong or right Wink, but as I wrote, Trichinomyia seemed to resemble my fly the most...
Best regards,
Jürgen

Hi Juergen,
The shape of the wing basal cells clearly indicates that your image is Hybotidae not Empididae (Rhamphomyia).
Please take a look:
