Hi all,

on 16.06.2020 I found this fly near a lake in Berlin (Germany), sitting on Iris pseudoacorus leaf. I think it is a Sepsidae species but I do not dare to identify it further. Can you help me?

Thanks for any help in advance!

Best, Adrian

Sepsis sp. and I do not think you will get any further.

Thanks Paul! There seem to be 13 species in Germany, I can understand that a species identification is not possible. Also the pictures are not showing much detail.. ;)
