Hello,
I found this fly on the 1st of May 2010 on a heathland in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It was about 13mm long. Could it be a
Phasia sp.?
With kind regards, Kathrin

Thanks a lot for your answers :). There are just too many families of Diptera - sometimes you just don't know where to look.
With kind regards,
Kathrin
