Hi, Sorry that is probably not easy. And I don't even got the genus list of Tipulidae in French Guiana. Collected in .....my bathroom in Kourou. It is not Brachypremna, nor Lecteria and Megistocera I don't think so.  |

Elephantomyia or Toxorhina (proboscis long with small palps at tip) |

Many thanks, John. It should be Elephantomyia, because of the wings nervation. |

Actually, at tip of the proboscis, there are no palps, it's the proboscis itself (a bit splitted ). So now I guess it is a Geranomyia because of the veination |
