 This fly was caught in a light trap mid October just outside Stockholm, Sweden. Hopefully someone can get a bit closer to the actual species.
All images are a bit darkened to get a better contrast
Wing length about 5 mm

 Many thanks John for pointing me in the right direction. With help from a good British key I have now concluded that it is a Suillia bicolor

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
