hi flyforum,

Today I found this kind of flies on mushrooms, on old wood.
I couldn't make a good shot of the wing..

Is a identification possible with this picture?

Size about < 10mm
place: old poplarwood, on mushroom (honey fungus?)
Almere-buiten, Netherlands

Might be Mycophaga testacea (Anthomyiidae)

Thank you for your reaction,

I found the dark/greyish side-part of the abdomen/tergites rather typical.
I don't know if this is a characteristic of these flies?
