While I was taking a break photographing Tachydromia:), I took a shot of this rhiniine.
In last September I photographed a similar fly as shown on this thread: http://www.dipter...ad_id=8760
Back then, Jorge reached the genus Rhynchomyia. Is this new one a different species (the legs' colour is a little different)?

The facial black spots indeed suggest Rhynchomyia.
Can't suggest a species, though, I have too little experience in this field.

Thanks Theo, Rhynchomyia is enough:)
