Hi,
Sorry that is probably not easy.
And I don't even got the genus list of Tipulidae in French Guiana.
Collected in .....my bathroom in Kourou.
It is not
Brachypremna, nor
Lecteria and
Megistocera I don't think so.

Elephantomyia or
Toxorhina (proboscis long with small palps at tip)

Many thanks, John. It should be
Elephantomyia, because of the wings nervation.

Actually, at tip of the proboscis, there are no palps, it's the proboscis itself (a bit splitted ).
So now I guess it is a
Geranomyia because of the veination
