Flensburg, N.Germany, 17th August 2018. After a few days of rain which hopefully broke a long drought.
Flew into my kitchen.

Body 10mm, wings 7.5mm

Species ID, if possible. Male or female? Could you let me know what criteria you use for the ID? I'm wanting to learn.

I noticed sparse golden hairs between the thorax bristles.

Thanks in advance
Ray
