Hi,
This fly I saw in Austria, Tyrol, Ellmau (820 m) in August 2009. The antennae recall some Lauxanias, but the body shape doesn't. Therefore I need help!
Thanks, Sundew

Psilidae: Loxocera, maybe aristata?

Fine - a genus new to me! And a difficult one, as it seems, but L. cf. aristata can't be too wrong. Many thanks indeed!
