Can someone help with a name for this one? Apologies if it's one I've already asked about - like
Exorista - just want to double check.

Thanks

Same fly, a different angle.

I think this is
Voria ruralis - from the acutely angled m-cu vein, the strong down-curved parafacial bristles and lack of hairs on the wing veins. :)

Thanks Chris, glad I double-checked this one. Here are a couple more photos in case they help turn your 'I think' into 'I'm sure'.

I think this may be a different individual, but it looks to be the same sp. Photo taken a few minutes previously.

Yes, that's
Voria ruralis - unless Theo trumps me with something I don't know ;)
