Interesting David, nice to build up a picture of where this fungus gnat is present.

 

The larvae can pupate in the silk cocoons on the bark and the fungus apparently. A quick search for Sciophila ochracea (a syn) comes up with some images of the gnat. My email correspondance with various people have stated that the only way to tell is to rear them to mature gnats for an ID.

If that tree's in Kew Village, I think I've seen it, and the plums indeed were good!

 

That landscape tree looks like it might want a prop or two...

Came across the associated webs last week. Not sure how common they are, perhaps just not noticed them before...
