Found on Wild Angelica on the edge of the beach at Graven, Shetland. Looking online the closest match I found is Chamaepsila pectoralis which isn't recorded from here before. Correct ID or something else...

A request for it to be added to the UK Species Inventory has been made at https://forums.nb...hp?id=7725
I'll try to get it onto NBN Atlas this year if you'll let me have the details (made a stab at the location but could only estimate the date)
Both Peter Chandler and Tony Irwin have taken a look at it and Tony confirms.
Taxon details at https://micropezi...y/term/112
Can I use the images for my next Micropezid & Tanypezid newsletter?

Good hunting
Darwyn

Yes you can certainly use the images, no problem Darwyn. The fly was photographed on the 6th June 2021 at grid ref. HU 40464 73318.
