Hi

In spite of the picture being from one year ago, today I turned to find this species again in a cork-oak forest edge in Palam?s, Girona (NE Spain).

This fly dances with its wings. I think it could be a Pallopterid, am I wrong?

Thanks for your help to identify this fly!

I see the only picture of this species in the gallery is yours, Nikita.

Thanks once again for your help.

I correct the subject and I will propose my picture for the gallery as well.
