Hello,

Can you help me with this one, too ? (the predator, not the prey !)
The quality is bad because it was far and the picture was taken with maximal zoom.
Is it possible to guess the family ? I try Heleomyzidae, but ...

Well it looks like a heleomyzid to me as well if that is any help. But I didn't know they were predatory
