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

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.
