Hello, I photographed this fly on the rocks of a small stream in the Gennargentu Mountains, Sardinia (NU), Italy, 1620m a.s.l. on May 13th 2025. I think it is a Limoniidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species based on these photos? Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [270.2Kb] Edited by ESant on 23-12-2025 14:26 |

Dactylolabis
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. |

Thank you very much Dmitry! Could it be Dactylolabis (Dactylolabis) corsicana? According to the new Checklist of Italian Fauna it is the only species in this genus reported for Sardinia.
