Hi Lisa. I've suggested Diptera so the the moderator for true flies will receive an email notification. For this reason it is very useful to select the sub-category rather than just choosing insects.

Thanks Michael. I’ll be surprised to get further down the classification than order but thought I’d give them a challenge. Are you sure it’s a fly and not a bee? 😊
