wow... I think thats the first one I have got from that family... ! It must be closely related to Empididae, is it? I thought first it was a member of the Micropetidae or Dolichopodidae because of the very long legs.. |

As luck would have it I found a lot more of this family now when I was lingering in the forest. On most trees where a lot of them, but in that case I think they were the Genus Tachydromia... I will put them in a new thead next week when I upload the pictures of my Camera o the Computer. |
