Hello,
for this male found in the garden on 14 May 2022, we think of a Medetera with this face, but we are puzzled about the species.
In effect we had thought of M. flavipes with this habitus but the surstylus does not seem to fit.

Body size : 2,9 mm.
Locality : Luçon, middle west of France

Is it possible with these pictures to go to the species?

Thanks by advance

Christian
