 Tristam is right: definitely a small Sarcophaga s.l. (like Helicophagella or so).

 It is a female.

It is most likely Sarcophaga (Heteronychia) depressifrons, but I need a male for definite identification.

 I agree, this is Sarcophaga (Heteronychia) depressifrons. Very characteristic in its small size and dark colour.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
