Hello, On the window while I was cooking, is it Medetera sp?  Ca. 4 mm; 27 VI 2009; Southern France I've got a problem with the vein I pointed, which I don't see on pictures of this genus

Yes. Medetera. Cooking and seeing dipterans at the same time while cooking should be what any real dipterologist must do.  it seems a very small pyschodid the meal... |

As for its meal - I wonder whether this is more likely to be a very small moth. Doesn't look quite right for a psychodid. Any other opinions?
