Fruit fly - Trupanea? - Trupanea nigricornis

Fruit fly - Trupanea? - Trupanea nigricornis
Antelope Island, Davis County, Utah, USA
August 12, 2008
Had seen these on Bugguide before but never in person. Found at Garr Ranch on Antelope Island.

Excellent detail on wings!
I think yours is the same as mine. (But yours is photographed better.)

Trupanea nigricornis

(Martin: If you see this, I'd really value your opinion, as always. Also, there are other posts in Trupanea that might be affected.)

 
Too kind!
Well, now you're being too kind. As I was trying to focus on this little fly my camera kept asking if there was really something there. I wish my shot was half a good as yours. Thanks for the help with the ID.
