Where did you take the picture and how big is it? It is clearly a Diptera, but it would help if you could indicate the continent?!?

Hallo Martin
Ok a dipteria, I make the foto im Salzburger Land, the dipt. I think 10 to 12 mm large.
I hope this are enough information, I found it on a stone.

This could be a female of Allognosta vagans (Dip. Stratiomyidae)- the wings are very dark for this species, but the head and the wing venetion fit.

I'd say Scenopinidae,
Scenopinus species.
A new family for the gallery!:D

I agree, I was a bitdistracted by the wing venation, or what I thought I saw... It is not a Strat,:o it is Scenopinus. Also the body is more elongate in Scenopinus than in Allognosta!

Hi Tony,
do you think, that my very, very bad photo is good for the gallery?
I have problems with the flash. So the photo is not desirable.

I think so. It is very different in appearance to Maddin's
Metatrichia, and yours shows the family's venation much more clearly. I think it's worth putting up, at least until someone submits a better picture! ;)
