I was photographing a little yellow Collembola when this fly pounced on it and proceeded to eat it. :|
Looking at the front femur spines I think it may be some species of Norellia...Right or Wrong?

Norellisoma more likely ( t1 with 2 rows of spines and 2+3 dc).

Hi Stephane
Whichever one it turns out to be, it is unrecorded in Shetland. Wonder if you have seen the post I put in earlier which I flagged as S.litorea....I now think that may be one of these also....I would be thankful if you would check it out too.
Regards Roger
