Hello :)

I think this is Opomyza florum, if there is no doubt I can add some pics to the Gallery as I got a mating pair, and although the male and female look very much alike I know which was which as I got them separate first but in the same pic and the male jumped on the female.;)

Taken on 18th October 2009 near Lincoln UK.

6 pics.
