This is an ultradistinctive pretty fly, I am not sure which family it belongs to.

Yup. Although, I do not know if there are additional species in the genus in Hungary...

Hi,

Currently the species is known as Physiphora alceae (Preyssler 1791). In Europe there is, for as far as I know, only one species in this genus.
