The Netherlands, Kiersche Wiede, 12-7-2008.
In damp area with Phragmites and Alnus glutinosa.

Might be D. oculatus, but i have no info about the other species.

Any help on this one welcome,

Klaas

With those it is bound to be Diaphorus. Four species in the Netherlands:
hoffmannseggi Meigen, 1830
nigricans Meigen, 1824
oculatus (Fallén, 1823)
winthemi Meigen, 1824
Characters are in accordance with oculatus.
