I just couldn’t pass up this interesting looking fly. Flies are a difficult order, and I quickly gave up on narrowing down any sort of id.

    Hi Troy, have you tried diptera.info? Very helpful folks there. I get many of my diptera IDs there!

    Curtonotidae. Curtonotum is the only genus with described Neotropical species, but there are undescribed species of the other genera, I think.
