Hello,

this 10-12 mm Conopidae rested on a leaf at a blackberry hedge near a small rivulet (northwest Germany). Physocephala rufipes?

After looking at old photos (the one below is from July 2021) I am now quite sure, it is Physocephala rufipes - in an untypical resting pose und with the narrow "waist" mostly hidden by the wings.

Yes, I would suggest you edit the title bar to Physocephala rufipes.
