It's nice to know that it's not only Jari F who gets nice species up here. ;)

[edited] I noticed that there is a mention on a Finnish dipterist forum that the species has been collected in 1997 in South-Western Coast of Finland.

Is the host known? The habitat is fairly boring: old gardens in a suburb. Close by there is a moist spruce dominated forest by the lakeshore, bigger road with some regular ruderate landscape.

The specimen is in too good shape to be a long distance migrant, moreover I'm living inlands.

I'll try to take better pictures at some time point for the gallery.

Thanks again,

Jaakko
