Gracias Jose!
Yep looks like a moth, an awesome moth!
No, I've don't idea about the family..
Thank you Larry !! :D
…and welcome to Project Noah Valentin!!!
Thank you valentin. Any ideas of family, genus, or species?
This is a lepidoptera, and not a fly.
Thanks Juan, any suggestions...family, genus? If I remember correctly it had the behavioral pattern of a long legged fly. Thanks
Hi Larry, I think this is not a fly, but a moth
