Hi, I saved this little fly from a bird/insect font in my garden 2020-07-22.
Is it a Trixoscelis and it it possible to name the species? frontalis?

Thank you! Greetings, Eric

The genus is OK but I am unable to determine species.

Rather T. canescens than T. obscurella but better pics are necessary to make a proper ID Wink
