ID : Tephritidae species?
Evening,
I have attached two images of what I think might eb a Tephritidae species. These are coming to my moth trap in the evenings at the moment. Does anyone have any ideas on this please?
Regards,
Andrew.

It is an Opomyza, probably germinationis.

Thanks for putting me right there Paul. Are there any features I should look for to confirm the suggestion or otherwise?
Regards,
Andrew.

Yes a female of Opomyza germinationis. A very dark one.
