May I know what is this insect with spotted pattern?

Post by unagime »

The picture is in the attached file!! Found this insect on the wall of my singapore house, it was really long at first but when i tried to catch it, it separated into 2 parts (but it looks like there were actually 2 insects joined together in the first place) and become a smaller one like in the picture.

They must have been a mating pair. It is hard to tell what they are but perhaps they are Diptera of family Tipulidae (crane flies). It is difficult to be certain from the blurry photo without any indication of size.
