I have found these two female Platypezidae-flies in the middle part of Sweden.First picture from sept 17 2014.The second from okt 2 2015.I dont have access to any modern work over the family,but an old Swedish key gives the genera Agathomyia.If I then just compare pictures from internet,they looks very much like A sexmaculata,but that species has just been found once in Sweden (the most southern part) in 2013.Can it be confused with any other Northeuropean Agathomyia-species ?
