Certainly not a calypterate. From the first glimpse, either a Lauxaniid (I do not know all the Minettia species) or Curtonotum (Curtonotidae). At least change the topic to turn attention of the specialists.

Thanks Valery. I've just checked and it seems there are no Curtonotidae on British list so I guess it must be Lauxaniidae? Tile changed accordingly.
