Hi

I took this photo in 2012.VIII.08 in SERRA DA ESTRELA...

Empididae. Maybe Clinocera?!

Clinocerinae, yes, but too few features are visible to say much more.

I will upload a new photo later. I need to process it first. It will be a dorsal shot. Hopefully giving more information so it is possible to have, at least, the genus. Thanks.

Genus perhaps, apparently a female so little chance of a species ID.

This is Widemannia sp. because it is visible this feature:

Lower margin of face with concave notch above mouthparts…….Wiedemannia Zetterstedt

For species I would need males... but I only have females..
