Chloropidae; Gaurax maculipennis, I think.

Thanks Paul, Still on a sharp learning curve for diptera and using the internet resources so was not sure if I could post more than one photo per post. Would a photo of the genital capsule firm up the ID. I also have a small grey beast to follow, so its would be helpful to know if I can post two photos?

Many pictures per thread, but one picture per post Wink.
Use the "NEW REPLY" function to add another photo. And never forget to tell us where and when the photo was taken, that is important.
Regards, Sundew

The bracket was collected near Dalgety Bay, Fife, Scotland, around 40 emerged (indoors).

Genitalia are more like those of G. ephippium. The wings appeared to be darker apically but that may have been a trick of the light.
