This photo was granted by a friend of mine: Artour from Panama. He is a marine biologist (expert on Crustacea) so he travels a lot to other countries like... Borneo.. Grin

So he took this photo to a Pyrgotidae fly, I think. Is it possible to reach, at least, to genus level?
date - January 7, 2007

no more info...

Could also be a Platystomatid fly.

Could it be Tephritidae? Bactrocera-like or Dacinae?

Is it possible to enlarge the basal part of the wing or were the photos in the resolution you just posted them?

AQ assume it was a digital photo and in that case (unless he already cropped it before sending it to you) there must be more detail.

As per Wang & Chen, 2004 (Acta Entomologica Sinica, 47(4):490-498, Fig. 1) it's Loxoneura decora (Fabr.), Platystomatidae, but very similar wing pattern in Hendel, 1914 (Genera Insectorum, 157, Tafel 9, Fig. 168) is given there as L. fascipennis Hend. Both are known from Borneo.
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
