Hi,
Here is an interesting fly from 15 June, seen in a wood in southwestern Germany, 20 km west of Stuttgart. I think it is a male. Eyes and arista are bare. Wing venation recalls Sarcophagidae, but the head, especially in profile, is not sarcophagidish. The orange femora look very nice. I do not know where to place this fly, so I am very curious to learn your opinion!
Many thanks, Sundew
