When I took this shot this afternoon, I thought it looked like a Scathophagidae, but now I'm not so sure. Not a great photo, fault of the strong wind blowing off the sea :(.

I think it is a little bit unusual Sphaeroceridae.

Sciomyzidae, near Pherbellia.

"Not a great photo" - and yet It's much better than any of my own field photos:(:p
