Hi again
Now I need to ID this Dolichopodidae. It was photograhed at Fuensanta (Asturias), in Northern Spain on July the 15th. It was sat on a rock in a river in the middle of a river surrounded by a forest in a canyon.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance for any help.
Best wishes
Marian

When you see Dolichopodidae in that environment, look first in Hydrophorinae. Similarly, when you see Empididae in a stream look in Clinocerinae.
