Hello!

Is it possible to tell more than Sphaeroceridae sp.? About 6 mm, in low vegetation in our garden (northwest Germany).

Subfamily Copromyzinae, Crumomyia or perhaps Lotophila atra.

Thank you! Lotophila atra was one of the most numerous flies here some winters ago. But that species seemed less glossy to me (?).
