This looks like a Chloropidae to me... any further ideas?
Approximately 3-4 mm long.
Caught in Houston, Texas, in October 2001.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Maria

If it were a chloropid you would be able to see the large ocellar triangle in the dorsal view. It is not there. My guess is a lauxaniid but maybe Steve can confirm that when he drops in the next time.
