I have been trying to key this (not quite 2mm) Anthomyzidae with Collin's Britiish key, but this appears to be a species not known to Collin. Can anyone suggest the species, or provide a key.

It has remarkable rayed arista just like Ephydridae. It doesn't look like the Stenomicridae (Podocera) in Collin's key either.

Please try Asteiidae, Asteia concinna.

Thanks Stephane. No wonder I couldn't key it!
