And what's a caddsi fly!

Looks like a Welshman's Button. The distinguishing feature is that it looks like a photo of a welshmans Button in the FSC guide.

Should i give up on this? i thought it actually might help people.... though obviously not with their spelling.
The distinguishing feature by the way is in the specie name.

Don't give up Pom, we all love you.

Palp, that's the feature, the palp that covers the front of its head.

the latin name Sericostoma personatum.
personanatum( I believe) translates a mask, the type they wear in masquarade balls held up on a stick.
The enormous palp looks resembles this.
