Looks like it might be Empidideicus Becker but need clear view of wing venation to be sure. |

It is Empidideicus and something new. There are no described species from Goa but I have about 4 new species from the Western Ghats, which are currently being described in my world revision of this genus. -Neal |

this reinforces even more my love for mythicomyiids. (hm... what I don't like in the flies? I like all of them. And I don't know why... I've tried to answer this but no one satisfies myself.) |
