This fly was on the Pacific Ocean beach, northern Oregon, USA. 13 May 2007. 5.1 mm to apex of wing. Can someone please tell me what family? Stephen attached the following image:  [87.45Kb] --Stephen Stephen Cresswell www.americaninsects.net |

Thank-you Nikita! I was so far from my mountain home all the flies looked unfamiliar. But of course I have problems with fly ID at home, too!
