This looks a bit like a Drosophila to me but maybe someone (Paul?) has a better idea? Smile Taken in my garden in southern England today - ~3-4mm long.

PS for Black: *this* was using the G7 Wink

Lauxaniidae - let's wait for Paul to go deeper.

Sounds a good plan ... I just know it doesn't have big enough bristles to be one of mine Wink

Chris, I can't give a species level, but genus is Sapromyza.
