The Oosterbroek key leads me to Heleomyzidae (step 91) but somehow this doesn't feel right. I have a male and female, that last one with a long ovipositor. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot! Pieter    |

Not Heleomyzidae. Look, please, for the tibial chaetotaxy (no preapical setae present) and ovipositor (needle-like structure). Maybe Ulididae or any other Tephritoid-like fly...
