One from last year[June] Male and possibly female of the same species, only half a metre apart in the grass. Listed on my checklist for Shetland are 4 species [fwiw]. Not sure if the names are up-to-date. Rhamphomyia morio Zett. Rhamphomyia simplex Zett. Rhamphomyia stigmosa Macq. Rhamphomyia erythrophthalma Mg.

The male (at least) looks like Rhaphomyia stigmosa.
