Can anyone suggest a family for this fly? At light, Townsville, Queensland.

Entomologist Stephen Marshall wrote in one of his books, if it has a complete subcosta, no vibrissae, and doesn't look like anything else, it's probably Lauxaniidae.
(In Coleoptera, a generic looking beetle that doesn't have any distinctive characters is likely to be Tenebrionidae.)

Thanks John. Great information. Does that mean I can start posting beetles for ID too? :-)
