I would appreciate your help. This Bombyliidae has been identified as Lyophaebra lugubris, but can't find anything of that genus or species. Is the identification correct? This specimen was seen in the north of Chile. Edited by Roden on 14-11-2015 05:50 |

I think you mean Comptosia (Lyophlaeba) lugubris (Rondani, 1863). Original description can be found at archive.org (Diptera exotica revisa et annotata. Novis non nullis descriptis - Archivio per la zoologia, l'anatomia e la fisiologia, 3(1): p. 55)
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |

Could this be a fly Aphoebantus? that wing coincides with the genre? |
