hello again .)

the following fly i specified as 'Noriella sp.' on my website. my website-partner does not agree with this identification and he wants to check it up in this forum, so i do.

i made this photo two years ago, near a litte biotop in d?sseldorf/germany. sorry, but i can't remember how long this fly was.

thanx for help,

best regards,
maik

Hi Maik.
It isn't Scathophagidae, but Sciomyzidae. Some times this flies look a little alike...
Genus Tetanocera, male. Nice image, but not good point for species level ID...
