Phasia obesa - male  The reasons being: quite small, mainly black with grey dusting on the anterior parts of the thorax; and male because of those classic 'male Phasia' wings |

Thanks Chris. Must have been my lucky day, I am so often wrong on flies, that getting even the genus right is a wow. Philippe |
