Limoniidae, Hexatoma (Eriocera) sp., probably related to verticalis Wiedemann.
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |

A correction: I think it's quite a rare occasion when we can put a species name on this, initially I overlooked the unusually short basal part of radial vein which in the key by Edwards (1921) leads directly to Hexatoma (Eriocera) ornata (Enderlein, 1912); it's recorded from Malaysia, both Peninsular and Sarawak. Here's from the original description (Zool. Jb. Syst. 32: S.35-36): Kopf hell bräunlich-gelb. Stirnhöcker hoch gewölbt, fast von Augenhöhe. Palpus zart, gelbbraun. Fühler sehr lang und dünn, braun, die 3 ersten Glieder hell braungelb; die Börstchen befinden sich auf der Unterseite (wenn der Fühler nach vorn ausgestreckt ist). Kopfbehaarung lang, dicht und sehr fein. Thorax matt, hell bräunlich-gelb; mit 4 braunen Längsstreifen, die seitlichen vorn verkürzt, alle reichen nicht über die mittlere Querfurche, die hier sehr scharf und nach vorn konkav ist; Dorsa an den Seiten braun. Abdomen hell braungelb, Hinterrand des 3. Tergits fein schwarz gesäumt. Halteren hell braungelb. Rückenschild mit langer sehr dichter und sehr feiner gelblicher Behaarung. Hinterriücken lang und impubesciert. Beine relativ dick, mit sehr dichter, langer und feiner Pubescenz; hell ockergelb. Spitze der Schenkel blaßbraun, der Schienen braun. Klauen braun, ungezähnt. Unterseite des Thorax und die Coxen etwas gebräunt. Flügel hyalin mit hell braungelber bis brauner Zeichnung, wie sie die Abbildung zeigt. Adern hell braungelb. Die Medianäste sind sehr kurz. Membran rot bis blau opalisierend. Please submit the images both to diptera.info Gallery and Catalogue of the Craneflies of the World (http://nlbif.eti..../index.php).
