Mydid fly
Description:
This beautiful fly moved a small distance and sat very still. It was hard to think it wasn't a stick. The wings were practically invisible. I took some photos and disturbed it. I thought it had landed on the other side of the track. When I looked closer at the fly I realised it was a different fly. The second fly had an extra spur on the wing veins. Anomalomydas mackerrasi Thanks Torsten Dikow for confirmation on the species. 4 additional photos and comments in the first comment box.
