This fossil fly was exhibited at Berlin natural history museum and labelled as Bibio angulatus. However, this name doesn't exist.
A dipterologist said:
"Wing veins are more typical of Orthorrhapha than Nematocera. There is a discal cell and long CuA2 ending near wing margin"
Thus this fossil would not be a Bibio. But then, what is it? Thanks!
