Small Fly - Condylostylus occidentalis - female

Small Fly - Condylostylus occidentalis - Female
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
June 27, 2018
Size: 5-7mm
Looks somewhat similar to Condylostylus-occidentalis, but is a bit smaller and shorter. Was hanging outmin the same area as the Condylostylus-occidentalis I was photographing. Wondering if it is male and female? I have also included an image of the Condylostylus-occidentalis I was photographing near it.

Two different individuals
Wide abdomen = ♀
If the second image is a different individual, then they should be un-linked. You can associate them with a thumbnail tag (or a web link) in the text. Such as...
The male is here: ♂ Please let me know if you need more help with this.

Thanks for the reply. I thoug
Thanks for the reply. I thought it was obvious why I posted the separate individual. It is not clear, but I think you are saying they are the same species with one being the female and the other the male? That was my suspicion, but wanted to to confirm it.

Cheers
Tim

OK
I already un-linked them for you and moved them into the genus.
You are correct about the genders. Let's wait for expert help, before moving these images to the species level.
