I often saw this sniper flies, but could never get any closer than Nerioidea, maybe Family: Micropezidae? Location: Indonesia, W-Java, vic.: Tangerang: BSD, ca. 50m asl., 21.03.2011 Thank you for your time :-) Cheers -guido gbohne attached the following image:  [218.43Kb] Edited by gbohne on 10-12-2017 08:23 Guido Bohne |

Micropezidae subfamily Taeniapterinae. The vertical row of long hairs on the katepisternum (above mid leg) identifies the subfamily. |

Thank you very much for IDing and explaining the subfamily characteristics. I hope this one (100km W of the other location) belongs to the same subfamily (Taeniapterinae): https://www.flickr.com/photos/gbohne/6291579052/in/album-72157677669208370/ Best regards -guido Guido Bohne |
