Hi,
I really do not know where to put this dark fly from today. It has stout hind femora and a spur on the hind tibiae. I am looking forward to a name!
Thanks, Sundew

A short and precise reply - in case of this family we can't come closer to a name, I'm afraid...
Many thanks nevertheless, Sundew

Well, it could be Sphaerocera...
