Not seeing many posts about flies lately, so here's Geomyza tripunctata, separated in females (if the scutum is orange) from the very similar G. nartshukae, by the shape of sternite 8. From calcareous grassland in Devon this year. #ecology #flies www.dipteraid.co.uk #dipteraidentification #imaging The fly is mainly red/orange with three dark marks on each wing.

Suillia affinis, a Heleomyzid fly found in local Devon wet woodlands
Suillia affinis from local East Devon woods. Any ecologists out there with a backlog of Diptera needing determinations? I have space for sub-contracted work going into December/January and beyond. Please contact me if I can help! #dipteraidentification www.dipteraid.co.uk Please share, thanks!
