Scotland, moorland , July 2020 This is a small (wing length 2.5mm) Scathophagid (I think) with a very distinctive black peg-like spine underneath the front femora - Any ideas on the genus or species?

I think Anthomyzidae, which have this conspicuous spine on the underside of the front femora.

Cheers Jørn

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
