Hi

My friend Artour took this photo in Amazon to a micropezid.
Is it possible to reach genus level, at least?

This looks very much like a member of the genus Scipopus. I don't have any keys with me so I can't give a positive ID. As far as I know the only current, active micropezid worker is Steve Marshall at Guelph.
