Seen on an unidentified leaf in a very wet water meadow, beside a drainage ditch. Field full of developing umbilifers and other wild flowers/grasses. Deciduous woodland and a river close by.

My very limited text book suggests Lonchaeidae, but I don`t have a clue.

Many thanks

Couldn`t attach the picture first time. Image resampled, so trying again. Sorry

Assuming this photo was taken in England, I'd file it under blowflies (Calliphoridae).

I thought that blowflies were ugly things. This one looks far too attractive to have such unsavoury habits :)

Thanks for the ID.
