I collected this on a Ganoderma bracket on 8 Sept, in woodland by the Menai Strait, North Wales. It keyed to D. ingrica using the Fauna Ent. Scand. key, which is not a British species, but the genitalia don't fit this species. Any suggestions, please?
The dark bars on the tergites have a break in the middle.
More pictures to come.

Middle kateepisternal bristle is weak, so am I correct in Drosophila?

After dissection. Clouds of brown specks came out when I dissected it, presumably Ganoderma spores.
