Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Am I a fly?

This little fellow (about 2mm) has what looks like a tiny second pair of wings instead of halteres. Is he really a member of the diptera tribe? The forked vein suggests Ceratopogodae. If he is a midge, he is of the non-biting sort. Can anyone help with identification?
