I found this Neriidae fly in the Arnhem Zoo in the Netherlands. This zoo has a very big, real rainforest indoors. The plants in this forest, called the Bush, come from around the world. No insects were intentionally released in there, but these flies are doing very well. I'm guessing these flies are origionally from South-America. Can anyone iD it for me?

Sure. I have time to go back to Arnhem in the end of next week. How many would be wise to collect?

I'm going back next tuesday. Should I send the specimens to you via mail, or is it better to just drop them off (if it's not too far away)?
