Moscow region, 11 aug, 3,5mm
I've come to P. cursitans, but M1+2 and R4+5 parallel as it has to be in case of P. verralli.

With never enough details visible on pictured
Platypalpus (that is virtually impossible) I will only seldom put a name on a pictured specimen. I would need to see the fly for that.
