This small fly (c5mm) keyed out to Angioneura cyrtoneurina, but I have no comparative material nor can I find any photos of the species.
Taken beside a spring-fed stream in a marshy valley bottom in the Yorkshire Wolds, UK yesterday.
Parafacialia are bare, as is the prosternum. One strong pair of scutellar bristles and a shorter, crossed apical pair. Frons roughly 3x width of ocellar triangle.
Thanks for any help with confirmation.

Thanks
It is looking good !
Check whether the calpyter is large / Calliphorid-like and not small / Rhinophoridae-like.

Thank you very much, Theo...definitely Calliphorid-like calypters. It keyed out quite easily from Steven Falk's key to Calliphoridae...just needed to know I was not barking up completely the wrong tree!
