 I found this yesterday, c.3.5mm. Looks like Coenosia (Muscidae), but I can't quite fit it to anything in the gallery. There seem to be quite a few UK species. Can anyone identify this one? And the prey?

 Why not Coenosia tigrina female? I always look for the brown "knees"...

 Coenosia is correct, but it is not C. tigrina. I can't say more with this picture.

 Thank you both. I'm happy to have the genus confirmed.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
