what are these odd little flies with large antennae, they mill about together on leaves and square up to each other. I thought they looked like a very small Anthomyiids but I can find no gallery images that fit those proportions. about 5mm in overall length Found in September at Hailes Abbey Fruit farm in Gloucestershire Jeremy jeremyr attached the following image:  [80.76Kb] Edited by jeremyr on 19-01-2015 18:56 |

They look more like Limnophora (Muscidae) to me.
