Hello

This tiny fly with some white on its face, holding its wings spread...
On a bush, near a pond. Optevoz, Is?re, France 7/07/06

My guesses are Metopia or Fannia.

Thank you for help

Christophe

Not Fannia but Phania I think :) Looks like Phania funesta (Tachinidae).

See my photos on http://tachinidae...rcno=10601

ok thanks a lot Chris
"Fannia" looked more feminine, more "Frenchie"... (sigh) ;)
