Hi everybody

Can anybody help to identify this specimen. I found it at Simar Nature Reserve, Malta on 7.03.06. I will also be sending another photo of same specimen from another angle.

Hello, and welcome gorgi!

It is a conopid fly of genus Myopa. This is a difficult genus and there may well be still undescribed species in Europe.
