...I'm pleading for the first. Right?

Found yesterday in Ostwestfalen/Germany at a meadow. Length about 7-8 mm.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Juergen.
In end October in Sochi region I met fly looks almost similar for me:

Mine is Anthomyiidae, but my attempts to get genus wasn't succesful:(

Hello, Nikita!

Thanks! Your's is similar, but a little bit more colourful (especially the legs). But I think, mine could be a very close species.

Hi J?rgen
Certainly looks like an anthomyiid female. (But I'm not offering a genus name - maybe later next year! :D)
