Another Muscoid fly observed in the Alps, at an altitude of ca. 1800 m.

The triangular shaped thorax indeed suggests Limnophorini.
This fly was observed at an altitude of 1800 m or so near a mountain stream. So Limnophorini would make sense as Limnophorini tend to be close to water.
I think Villeneuvia, Neolimnophora, and Limnophora an be ruled out
Not sure if this can be Lispe.
I wonder how Spilogona acrostichalis, aerea, alpica, micans, sororcula or triangulifera looks like, which should occur in the Alps in Austria. Especially the triangulifera name would fit this animal.
