 It's a pleasure IDing when the bristles are so clear in the photo, so thank you for posting this Grin If you need any help, just ask on the forum - someone will always answer.

 For once I am reasonably happy with my ID of one of these small dark Calliphorids - they are so difficult from photos. If everyone else is happy with the ID, it would be useful to have these two pics in the gallery. Henry - can you submit please?
