Hello!

Many Phaonia tuguriorum on the wing yesterday (and other Muscidae, see here: http://insektenfo...adid=12680), but this one seemed a little bit bigger (10-11 mm). Could it be P. valida?

Somewhat larger picture:

Ah..., again that one, thanks! Today it was also the only Phaonia species here. Never noticed it in the past, now it seems ubiquitous...
