What In Common
Sam,
I've been wondering how much of my fauna is mirrored in only Oklahoma. Commonalities in ecosystems or in photographers? Then I realized, it's photographers ... Sam Houston's in Oklahoma. Here's ta ya, Sam, continuing to dazzle BG with obscure bugs others never notice.

Not an ID
but could it be something in/near Procladius or Tanypus? Anyway I'm guessing Tanypodinae.
