Apologies for the awful photo, I only show it as it seems rather a strange little fly and there did not seem much in the gallery like it.
It was very small, I only saw it by accident while at grround level looking at some fungi at the base of a tree. July 2005, new forest, UK.

"Science News - Recent cave art discoveries indicate that early man hunted flies as well as bison and mammoth!" Grin
Sorry, Mike - couldn't resist it. Yes, its a cecid. Not much chance of saying anything more about it, though.

Yes I thought cave art too, wonder if it would make some nice wallpaper. Thanks for the confirmation of the ident.
