...I did not yet know the photograph of the single fly. It is a Sphyracephala munroi. This fly can also be seen on the other two photographs though there it mainly concerns Diasemopsis varians. The photographs of the munroi fly are, as far as I know, the first ever live photographs of this species...." Hans Feijen.

Sphyracephala brevicornis. Rock Creek Park, Washington, DC, USA. 5 July 2014.Not quite as impressive as its tropical cousins, but I still did a double-take when I realized what I was looking at. Please, please, please, let me take a couple of decent shots before you fly away! Only when I looked at the pictures later did I realized that she couldn't fly because she had a malformed wing. Definitely the Diptera sighting of the year.
