Hello,

yesterday i found this 6 - 7mm fly on our compost box in Hannover, Germany.
Could it be a female Berkshiria hungarica?

Best regards,

Hans

Eupachygaster tarsalis. For one, the shape of the antennae is different in BErkshira, next the wing base is not darkened in that genus.

Hello Paul,

thank you so much for your determination!
Now I see the dark wing-base what I haven't seen before.

Best wishes from Hans
