Thanks, Paul. I had a go at trying to identify it using the key in Pitkin's thesis. https://spiral.imperial.ac.uk/bitstream/10044/1/38136/2/Pitkin-BR-1986-PhD-Thesis.pdf I get to Leptocera but I struggle to get to species as I think I am misinterpreting the tibial spines. |

It helps if you can manage to make a phot of the ventral side of the mid tibia
