Hi
I am short of keys for this group of flies.
I key it to Kowarzia (or Clinocera?) But don't have keys to bring it to species level.
Does anyone have an answer for this one. It could be Kowarzia bipunctata as it has been recorded here...but it is only a guess.
From Faroe Islands

Thanks

The genitalia match those of K. bipunctata as illustrated in Collin, 1961 British Empididae
