Wonder if this might be identifiable to genus.. Was found on wet soil of stream bed in shade of dense evergreen forest in the Western Ghats of Kerala, India.

Limoniidae, Hexatoma (Eriocera) sp., venation is poorly visible as well as other important characters, using Edward's key it runs with some conjectures to flavicosta, a fly with different coloration of abdomen.
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |
