Not a very good picture, but the best my equipment can manage for a small specimen. I suppose this is a mycetophilid, but I have never seen antennae like these - 16-segmented, broadest at the central segments. Total length (excl. antennae) 10mm. Location: garden Plymouth, Devon, UK, time 1500 hours.

Keroplatidae: Keroplatus testaceus, a female. Nice catch!
