Newer, *slightly* better pics
Can we frass this one? I went back and took some newer pics: here and here. They're not great pics, but they are a little better.

Tethina
Congratulations! This is the first tethinid on Bugguide! Was this fly on the beach? Most Tethinidae occur only on coastlines (some also in saline areas inland).

puget sound (inland bay)
Neat!! Just wish the picture had turned out better! Going to have to go back and do a fly session down by the mud flat. Hope you don't mind looking through a few dozen fly pics in the near future, Matthias. :) Hmmm...and I thought the guy with the spotted wings would be the fly to get IDed from this trip to the park!

great
I'm glad to cross Tethinidae off the list of fly families we don't have
