Hi,

one of the most beautiful flies I have ever seen, but no idea what it might be. The specimen was collected in New Mexico, US.

After looking more closely I have doubts. The antennae may be too short. Can you confirm with the keys to genus and species in the reference I cited? It is available here: https://sites.goo...references.

Oedopa ascriptiva Hendel. Known to me from Colorado. Genal setulae are clearly black.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
