Hello,
a 7 mm Muscid on a leaf near a small creek (northwest Germany).
Helina impuncta/depuncta?

Hello Jürgen,
you are right about Muscidae Helina impuncta/depuncta.
i find both of them together many times and it is difficult to separate them if certain features are not clearly visible, such as, arista and prealar bristle.
Best wishes,
John
