Such a pretty fly. Two different individuals, but I think the same species. Montagne de Kaw, French Guiana, 31 May 2011. Visiting a flowering shrub, open area, near forest.

Looks vaguely familiar - I'm sure I sent Menno Reemer something like that before so let's wait for him

Palpada sp. Is it perhaps albifrons?

Several possibilities, but albifrons is not one of them. Hard to tell from pictures alone... |
