Can someone give me a quick pointer to what brachypterous (or in this case polymorphic) species of Ephydridae we have in Northwestern Europe. I go a small sample of smallish Ephydridae from a pitfall which superficially look conspecific, but one specimen is brachypterous. I only have a very outdated key to dive into, so if someone has a lead for me to ease my struggle...
