Hello,

This one was running up my door on a very dull day so they are poor pics. Taken on 25th October 2009, near Lincoln UK.

Not sure of the size but it was small.

Two pics.

Sphaerocerinae (not Copromyzinae). Could be Ischioplepta (really small) but I don't have my key at hand to check. Not to many genera with a warty mesonotum.
