Today I photographed this small fly at Leerdam, Netherlands. Unfortunately it allowed me only this one picture. When I looked at the picture I noticed that the fly had reddish stripes on its eyes, a charactar I do not see every day. So perhaps it is possible to say to which family it belongs?

Thank you in advance!

Let me be the first to guess: Calliopum (Lauxaniidae)?

You are probably right, Kahis, thanks! It is more than I hoped for ;)
