Hello!

This tiny fly (at most 3 mm) from an Oregano plant in our garden today (northwest Germany) resembles Rhinophora lepida in the gallery. Can this be confirmed? Thanks!

Looks like a Rhinophora lepida to me :) They like to sit openly on foliage in sun in gardens a short distance from the ground.
