Hi all,

The photo below is of a very small fly stuck on the leaf of a Drosera (sundew) in my bog garden. It is one of the photos I just posted on my blog (there is another image of the same species). Can anyone help identify it? I am located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Thanks,
EC

Look for angioneura. These are uncommon though, maybe more so in BC.
