Hello, This diptera was photographed in Plaine du Roussillon (Pyrénées-Orientales, France) on March 5, 2025 (altitude 69 m). Its size is about 3 to 4 mm. Can we confirm Forcipomyia bipunctata, or are there other species that have the same habitus?  ANDRE LABETAA : France : Ponteilla : 66300 : 05/03/2025 Altitude : 69 m - Taille : 3-4 mm environ. Réf. : 354984  ANDRE LABETAA : France : Ponteilla : 66300 : 28/02/2025 Altitude : 71 m - Taille : 3-4 mm environ Réf. : 355009 Edited by DedeLab on 08-03-2025 20:23 André LABETAA |

This looks OK for F. bipunctata, which is a common species found throughout Europe and North America. I do not know if there are similar species with which it can be confused, but I think you're safe to call this bipunctata.
