Hi

This is a beautiful fly I saw in Serra da Estrela. It is one of the most impressive flies there. :)

Who am I?This is easy too.. not so like the other IV. :d

:D AHA! You are in the right track!!! :D
Yes, this is Parageron! Therevids and Coenomyiids don't have eyes compressed at the middle like this one. ;) Also the head profile is not typical for those families. It has a grey gena and some macrotrichia. And note the proboscis. ;)
