 Hi,

found in a small wet coastal depression on the beach. Is it possible to determinate the genus of this diptera?

Best regards
JP

 Coelotrypes vittatus Bezzi, 1923 (Tephritidae, Trypetinae, Adramini), apparently the most widespread member of the genus in the Afrotropics (Gabon to Madagascar to Cabo Verde). Can't tell whether it's recorded from Benin.

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.
