Hello, I don't kow what species is this fly. She looks like Phaonia serva but thorax and tibia 2 setaes don't match. Or it is an Hydrotaea ?

Hi Jessica. If you find at 2000 m asl something Phaonia-like but not Phaonia; Hydrotaea-reminds but not Hydrotaea, it means that you met Thricops! Th. longipes (with very small "?" mark) Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Yes, for Central Europe it is alpine species. (In N Russia - very common everywhere.) For identification see my key here: https://ia800502.us.archive.org/26/items/RevisionOfTheKeyCharactersForTheThricopsNigrifronsSpecies-group/788-G-3-layout.pdf Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

And for C Europe 2050 m is normaly too much for Th. nigrifrons.
