I think this is either Phylidorea ferruginea or P. longicornis. Seems to have a mix of the supposedly differentiating characters. Vein Rs is short like the plate for P. ferruginea in British Craneflies by Alan Stubbs and the wing is quite long. Also top of head is grey dusted. But femora with strong black apical ring and suggestion of infuscation around base of Rs and crossveins, more like P. longicornis. UK. Bedfordshire marsh. 20 April 2022.
