Found this fly in a birdbath in Ansbach, 2024-10-15, garden near old deciduous forest in Frankenhoehe Nature Park.
The pattern of the mesonotum is distinct and the light patches above the lateral margins of the abdominal tergites are partly visible.
Can it be Phortica semivirgo and is it a male or a female? Thanks a lot for your comments.
EDIT: Phortica semivirgo confirmed by Jan Máca!

I am rather for P. semivirgo, the darkening of tarsi is apparent in the first picture.
