Hi
I have found one athericid in the same spot where I saw the Cephalodromia (check the second photo of the habitat in this thread:
http://diptera.in...d_id=23643) but the athericid escaped. Then I went in the direction of the Nave de Santo António... and stopped near a waterfall. This
Ibisia sp. approached to the my blue car Peugeot (when I was trying to attract tabanids - didn't see none.)... and it was a piece of cake to spot this beauty again! This "tell" us that the water around is in very good condition! :) But so far I didn't the Blephariceridae - another fly very sensible to pollution.. and present in Serra da Estrela:
