I'm assuming it's Sciaridae but a midge was my first thought, anyone familiar with this? Ceratopogonidae? It's from the atlantic rainforest, SE Brazil (Sao Paulo) Techuser attached the following image:  [138.3Kb] Edited by Techuser on 14-08-2020 04:36 |

Yes, it's Ceratopogonidae - reminds me of Clinohelea, but not all the characters that distinguish the genera are visible in this photo.
