Platystomatidae, Platystoma sp. maybe seminationis, Smile but having got this wrong a couple of days ago, you should wait for Valery, who knows a BIT about these Wink.

Don't think it is seminationis, either of the two, and I think there are two species here.

I had my doubts too, comparing with the two similar species we have in the Gallery, that's why I said "maybe" (The Get Out Clause Cool). Having had 6 hours sleep in the last 40 odd hours I was starting to see spots before my eyes trying to compare the bar-code like wing patterns. Best to leave the species bit to someone like Valery who KNOWS what he's talking about.

Edit...and it does look like two different species.
