Dear all; Enclosed a fly I found in spanish mountains near Portugiese boarder; 600m beginning August; cole by a small river. From the quite characteristic Abdomen I would guess Gymnosoma clavatum. Could you please confirm / correct? Thanks and best regards; Norbert. Norbert attached the following image:  [134.65Kb] |

I think the abdomen is only characteristic of a male Gymnosoma  Do you have any other angles?
