This painted-winged fly was some days ago in the Catalonian pyrenees in a zone of marshes covered with rushes? (Phragmites australis). Can be identified?
Thanks,
Regards

Rivellia (Platystomatidae). Don't know if there are any other than syngenesiae in that area.

Leif Lyneborg also described R. hispanica, but this one seems to be R. syngenesiae, indeed

Thanks a lot to both! New family to my files. The pity is the poor pic, but the fly don't let me a second try.
