This little Chloropidae was photographed in the garden yesterday. As I have none on my Checklist, genus of this one would be appreciated so I can pass it on to the Local Recorder to update his List.
The last time I sent one of these Yellow ones in I got no reply...so hopefully.....

The genus is Chlorops (Chloropidae). A difficult one.

Thanks KWQ...I know they are a difficult Family.
That's why I only asked for genus in Post #1. Just wanted to be sure before passing it on to Local Recorder.
