Several of these very interested in fungi in woodland today. What family is it? Looks like Dryomizidae to me, could I be correct?

Yes, Nigel, correct.
I'd say Dryomyza flaveola

Thanks Nikita, and I have just consulted a key to UK Dryomyza and this is in fact D decrepita. As it has completely yellow palpi and clouded cross veins - see the photo below.
I'll submit these to Smile the gallery.

nikita, you have reason. They are two different specimens. Wink

I still have doubts about adding this two images in Gallery under name of D.decrepita.
1. My test it is D.flaveola
2. I don't see why it isn't simply N.anilis

I have changed the name of the first image to flaveola in the Gallery. Why is the second not decrepita? (I have no key here.)

Yesterday I showed this fly to Andrey Ozerov, Dryomyzidae expert. His opinion is: 1. D.flaveola; 2. N.anilis/D.decrepita.
Andrey wants to compare with material in Moscow next wek to be sure.

My point of view is:
1. D. flaveola F.
2. N. anilis Fll.
