Can confirm that this small metallic fly is a Dolichopodid, maybe a Rhaphium sp. based on the shape of the antennae? c 5mm 17.5.2010 Wiltshire garden, UK nick upton attached the following image: ![]() [126.33Kb] Nick Upton - naturalist and photographer |

Many thanks for this quick confirmation Stefan. This species is not in the gallery so I should maybe add it. I've found a few other pictures online and it seems a perfect match.
