Can anyone tell me which
Dilophus this is; I guess
febrilis would be most likely but is there any way to be certain from a photo?

Thanks

Dilophus males are impossible from picture
Good news: second generation febrilis is extremely common at the moment, so that is my bet.

Be assured it had nothing to do with the quality or your pic.
And females are often well possible to ID....
