Arista seems again bare : I guess this is again
Phaonia consobrina /
subfuscinervis (females are more difficult to separate from picture).

That changes all things ! By the keys I arrive to
Phaonia incana. I have some little doubts because it should have more intensive yellow wing bases and calypters. It could help if I had this species in collection, but this is not the case. In an other hand, this female looks like
this one I IDed a few time ago as
P. incana , and furthermore, I don't know what it could be else. Always with caution...

Thanks Stephane
Phaonia incana is on the Checklist for Shetland FWIW.
You will be getting some in the post when I find ones that don't resurrect themselves after being under water for 4 hours..:S..Weird. Then I can get a positive ID....without caution.
