Another Muscid - Lispe
Ames, Story County, Iowa, USA
April 15, 2007
Size: 5 mm
Collected on sandy shore of small stream... the abdominal pattern seems distinctive... I'll compare it to the ISU collection tomorrow... almost certainly a new genus for the guide if I get it IDed

Nice fly
Quite decorative. Are the stripes on the abdomen curved?
