For those with a lot of experience this doli must be a piece of cake. I swept it near Zevernaar yesterday. It was a piece of farmland. Nothing spectacular. I wanted to throw the specimens away, until this weird looking fly caught my eye.

Such a long arista, which is in the middle a bit broadened. Mid tarsus is a bit modified. LAst segment is white, the two segments before it are slightly broadened.
