Found this little one (12mm) under a stone in the garden today. Possible to tell which it is?

Dear Roger
To me the specimen seems to young, and therefore unidentifyable. Some of the diagnostic features (development of the anal tubules and pigmentation of the anal lobes) are hardly developed. T. paludosa seems logical but this is just a guess.

Hi
Thanks for viewing it anyway. I only photographed and sent it in as there are no flies to speak of here yet. They are certainly a lot easier to photograph than flies, so I may send in some more later on in the year.
Regards Roger
