Many thanks Phil and Juergen for the quick help. It's a new family to me... Juergen's fly looks very like mine, must be their time of year..

using Darwyn Summner's keys (http://www.dipter...soidea.pdf) Psila fimetaria seems probable? |

Hi Mark, many thanks for keying this out, will run it through as well, but am sure I'll reach the same conclusion and it matches this image well: http://www.eol.org/pages/747866?text_id=6372592
