I fixed the common name for you. If you tick the box for help with the ID it won't let you change it unless you untick it. This neat insect is most certainly a Fishfly. Did you really see this today? If so, it is most likely a Summer Fishfly, Chauliodes pectinicornis: http://bugguide.net/node/view/8568
