Can anyone confirm/correct the family suggestion for this small fly and suggest a genus? I think the first anal vein is long enough.. and Veins M1 and R4+5 are parallel, but not all key characters are visible. 7mm 14th April Wiltshire UK nick upton attached the following image:  [99.19Kb] Nick Upton - naturalist and photographer |

Many thanks Stephane. On closer inspection, the first anal vein doesn't reeach the wing margin, so I should have known it was Muscidae. Many thanks for the genus ID.
