I found this fly on 27th april 2020 in the coastal dunes of Den Helder, Netherlands. Can someone please confirm if this is really germaria angustata?

Thanks a lot,
Mario Renden

I don’t see a picture, but I am pretty sure you spotted a Gonia. Either ornata or picea. Germaria is a summer species.

I know it's early for Germaria Theo, but it does look like it. Check the pictures here: https://forum.waa...364.0.html

Now I have got the picture, I couldn’t agree more. Very Germaria and very early !

Thanks
