hi flyforum,
This afternoon I found this fly in the Amsterdam forest.
It is obviously greyish-darkened with braunish-coloured wings.
The crossvein is a bit darkened and I see vibrisse in front of the mouth.
I was thinking of Muscidae but what direction?
place: Amsterdam forest

Hi Joke,
That's surprising :)
I could ask you on the dutch forum.
Phaonia crossed my mind, especially the wings..
Also thought of Coenosia or Hebecnema..
I have never seen this Phaonia sp. before.
Thank you for your reaction.
greeting Robert
