Hi Haukr
Phil Withers ID'd my Spaeroceridae from this site and has the specimens now. He said most were
Sphaerocera curvipes.
Of the three remaining (all unfortunately female), one is clearly Coproica ferruginata (for which there was no photo:
this is a distinctive orange-brown rather than black); the other two are Coproica vagans
I thought it might be
C. ferruginata too, but Phil says I didn't photograph my one specimen of that species, so I'm not sure.
Sadly, just haven't had any time yet this summer to go out and get some more.
