Dear Forum,
Also this fly, I found near the small garden pond. Does it also belong to Dolichpodidae? Is it possible to identify it?
Thanks,
Markus

Yes, it's Dolichopodidae, but the hind basitarsis does not have dorsal bristles, so it's not
Dolichopus. Possibly
Gymnopternus or similar, but wait for an expert opinion.
