ID please

think it might be a tiny (2 or 3mm) Rove Beetle but wings suggest otherwise.

Rove beetles do have wings, the hindwings fold beneath the short elytra, the abdomen is used to push the hindwings under the elytra when wings are not in use, have no idea what it is

Lovely capture- think it's a thrip
Bit like the one below

Thrip did cross my mind but I as too lazy to check - looks like we have Aeolthrips intermedius. I like their alternative name of Thunder Fly.

Hiya Toby,

Great shot/find, looks just like the ' Aeolthrips intermedius ' in my book.

I've not heard that term 'Thunder fly' for Yrs. down here we call 'Black Flies' simulium equinum, 'Thunder Flies' horrible pesky things that bite the hell outa one especially in thundery weather hence the name.

Cheers for now
Mark
