These yellowish reddish sort of flies make me nervous :@. The only thing I'm sure about is that I'm not sure. Photographed today in a pinewood near Rome, Italy, about 7 mm long.

Thanks, Sarah.

Hi Sarah.
It is Lauxaniidae who make your nervous, I think Sapromyza.

Sounds convincing to me Nikita (she said nervously), Sarah.
