this one i found inside my window in cologne, germany, on may 2, 2009. not so sure any more about the size, but i'd say a little bit smaller than a Musca domestica. not a great picture overall, but i think the wing is nicely visible, so maybe there's a chance? i can't really remember having seen one like this for at least some years.

cheers!

Looks like a Phaonia subventa. A female.
