Hi Cosmin,

Yes, this is Stichopogon sp., and it very probably is scaliger Loew - which is indeed known from Romania. Very nice photos of these little flies! Your Stichopogon looks just the same as Rui's - which leads me to think that his is also S. scaliger (even though scaliger is not yet reported in the literature from Spain or Portugal).

Regards, Eric

Prey on the first picture is Scatopsidae.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
