Snipe Fly (Rhagionidae), maybe?
Bears a resemblance to Rhagio.



Just a possibility to ponder while waiting for the fly experts.

Hmmm
I'm thinking it's taken that same snipe fly nearly five years to fly to South Alabama :) Thanks, Ken

So, CB, was it worth the wait?
For you?
For the fly?

Both of you are to be congratulated on your persistence! (Consider it done.)

Nifty images, BTW.
