no orange on legs so does that rule out Coenosia ?

THANKS ONCE AGAIN! :D The 2 females in the gallery have orange legs which put me off, I presume this is a variant?

It's a large genus and the leg colour varies a lot, mostly between species but some species have considerable intraspecific variability.
