This Medetera-like fly is about 3x larger than the usual Medetera individuals I find on my house wall. Also the legs are much longer. Is an ID possible? Found in July in Vienna.

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

Thank you Nikita. I thought of flavipes as well, but the legs have to be completely yellow, I suppose

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
