Hello,

I photographed this fly with visible eggs in the abdomen on a daisy today. Unfortunately I only have this side view. The size was maybe 4 mm? But I'm not good at measuring. Can the species be identified?

Thanks and greetings, Volker

Hi Roger,

thanks for the determination. I wouldn't have thought of the species as the genus is too difficult for me.

Thanks and greetings, Volker
