Apologies for the awful photo, I only show it as it seems rather a strange little fly and there did not seem much in the gallery like it. It was very small, I only saw it by accident while at grround level looking at some fungi at the base of a tree. July 2005, new forest, UK. miked attached the following image:  [96.89Kb] |

"Science News - Recent cave art discoveries indicate that early man hunted flies as well as bison and mammoth!"  Sorry, Mike - couldn't resist it. Yes, its a cecid. Not much chance of saying anything more about it, though. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |
