Summary

edit
Description
English: A biting fly, possibly a species of Spaniopsis, family Rhagionidae. Heathcote National Park, NSW Australia May 2012. These flies have been common in the Royal National Park and Heathcote National Park over the past month or so. Either my insect repellent is old, or these little fellas don't care. They draw blood and it hurts a bit. At least their bite does not remain itchy like a mosquito or sand fly.
Français : Une mouche piqueuse, peut-être une espèce de Spaniopsis, famille des Raghionidae. Parc national de Heathcote, NSW Australie mai 2012. Ces mouches ont été courantes dans le parc national royal et le parc national de Heathcote au cours du dernier mois environ. Soit mon insecticide est vieux, soit ces petits gars s'en fichent. Ils prélèvent du sang et ça fait un peu mal. Au moins, leur morsure ne reste pas irritante comme un moustique ou un phlébotome.
