I think this species is represented in the gallery, but I am not confident.

Another view of the same fly. I like Micropezids a lot.

Looks like a male Calobata ephippium to me. |

Andre, Valery Thx for your help with this and the other thread. In the gallery one should either transfer Neria sp to Neriidae or unite Micropezidae with Neriidae. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |

Correct, called Neria now... I forgot for that moment. Too lazy to look it up, 'cause I knew something changed  |

Xespok and Andre, You could not be more wrong. The name of the family Neriidae is based on the genus Nerius and this is a valid family in its own right. The genus Neria belongs to the Micropezidae. Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |

You can see even more spectacular photos of the very same species on this website taken by the famous photograher........ me But I did not realize that Neriidae comes from Nerius, a genus which I have never heard of. So one mystery less left. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |
