Hello,
this fly was found at a source moor (Sphagnetum) in N-Albania, at the beginning of June.
Size: about 8-10mm.
Which family is it?

Thanks in advance.

I'd say female Pelodnoptera nigripennis

Thank you very much, Nikita.

So this is Phaeomyiidae, certainly I never saw this family.

Greetings,
