Flensburg, N.Germany, 23rd August 2018. Flew into kitchen.
Hyperactive - it flew in jerking motions from side to side, on the window, much faster than other flies.
3mm black body. Orange mouthparts. Unusually long reclinate facial setae. Long, powerful, legs. Bristled genitalia.
Flight and morphology makes me think it’s an aggressive predator.

Thank You in advance
Ray
