Captured at light in East Suffolk, UK on 15th February 2023. I only have Phil Withers as a key so as a female specimen it cannot be keyed to genus. However it resembled a Psychoda but is not one of the species in Withers. So I came up with Feuerborniella obscura by a process of elimination and looking at images on line. It is about 10% smaller than Psychoda sigma. I would be grateful for expert confirmation or correction.
