This was taken emerging from the abdominal cavity of a dead rabbit in East Yorkshire, UK a few days ago. Seems to key out to Heleomyza serrata/captiosa from Collin, but grateful for confirmation or indeed correction!

This would be
captiosa as illustrated by Gorodkov in Bei-Bienko.

The male is a bit different from typical
H.
captiosa. Did you collect more specimens? Andrzej.

Thanks, Andrzej. I only collected that one on the day, but returned today and took a few more flies as they exited the rabbit's abdomen...they are still in the freezer, but I'll let you know if there are any more.
