Hello !

Is it possible to identify this small fly found near Paris ?
I think this is a Coenosia, tigrina or humilis maybe.
It came into a light trap near a pond.

I only have these two photos :

I would say Coenosia tigrina, based on leg colour and head bristles

Thank you Tony for your quick anwer.

Actually, legs are often black for C. humilis. It is not the case on this photo, that's why I had doubts.

I didn't look at bristles in detail, because I don't know the criteria.
