Hello. From southeastern Buenos Aires, Argentina. I guess it's Limoniinae. It measured around 20mm. Does anyone know the genus or species?

The side view shows that this has long palps - I think it is closer to Nephrotoma (Tipulidae)

Micha d'Oliveira in the Facebook group "Diptera" just confirmed that the genus is Nephrotoma. Lucas. |
