I've tended to avoid these in the belief that they are difficult to ID from photos but I thought I should try with this small common one from oxeye daisy, 7mm long.
I can look for any details that would help.
Thanks

I've been looking at some other threads. Could this be Pegoplata or Paregle sp.?
Peter
I should have added that the notopleuron is haired and that there is av seta on mid tibia, which you can't see on these photos, so ? Paregle audacula .

Yes, i think you are right!
Paregle audacula
Pegoplata has notopleuron not haired, the only possibility could be Zaphne, but then the arista should be haired (0.5 - 1x flagellomere) and with Zaphne mostly only the notopleuron is haired just behind the posterior notopleural seta.
And with your species the notopleuron is haired between the two notopleural setae and arista seems bare..
