Hello,

a ten years old photo I found in my database. Meadow near forest, northwest Germany. The fly measured about 10 mm.

Hi Jürgen, I agree with Helge. This should be C. rufa. And I can clearly see the difference to my Callicera.
Greetings

Thank you Jürgen,
at least we can see tarsi 4+5 of all legs are black and about 1/3 of hind femur is black at base. Other important features like length of second antennal segment are not visible, but I am quite sure: C. rufa.
