I don't like these any more
Has some similarity to both Forcipomyia (Lepidohelea) and the Dasyhelea cincta group and one from Florida I put in Atrichopogon.

Wow, gettin' a little personal!
OK, I'm not all that fond of them either, especially when they bite! (Actually, I'm not sure I've ever been bitten by one.)

I have a couple more views of this one and I can also blow up features a bit more if it helps. Let me know what, if anything, I should add. Thanks!
