It seems to me that I've already posted a similar fly... Anyway, this time the pictures are better  .Size 3.5mm. When extended, its ovipositor is longer than half of the body.

I don't think it is Chloropidae. Lonchaeidae? Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Hi Black This is indeed a female Lonchaeid, the majority of species cant be told apart but this one is easier to identify - its Lonchaea fugax the "yellow footed lancefly" is there any chance that I can use some of these images for a forthcoming Handbook on the British species ?? you can contact me at iain.macgowan@snh.gov.uk ...
