A tiny fly of those that look all the same (to me).  On my balcony. Happy with family! ¡Saludos! André Andre Burgers attached the following image:  [239.48Kb] Edited by Andre Burgers on 14-04-2024 18:56 errare humanum est sed perseverare diabolicum |

There is only one genus of Camillidae in Europe and four in total. Camilla is fairly widespread. The genus Afrocamilla is found in Africa and western North America. The other two genera are restricted to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. At least in America and Africa they are rarely collected so surprises are possible. |
