I have no clue about its identity. Looks like a mixture of various families. Grin

It was 3.0 mm long and found on Cistus ladanifer. Minas de Riotinto, Huelva; February 24, 2023.


Thanks! TumbsUp

Ceratopogonidae; Maybe a Serromyia sp.

Okidoki, Roger! TumbsUp

I considered this family, but didn' find any with those thick femora.

I will look into Serromyia!


¡Saludos!
