Don't really know what this is. The lurid background is a tent. It was photographed at Mataranka in the Northern Territory, Australia ie the wet tropical area, known as the Top End. 5mm.

Susan, too few details is visible, but I dare to speculate. I think it is Dolichopodidae, subfamily Sciapodinae. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Nikita You are probably right. I think it is too small and fine bodied (=thin) to be Rhagionidae. Thanks for taking the time to help me. Susan |
