Widespread under trees, 4mm. It is not Tephritidae, neither Pallopteridae I think.

Could well be Sciomyzidae. A lateral shot might help.

Hi Nikita and Paul, I don't want to say Sciomyzidae is impossible, but the convergent post-vertical bristles don't point to that family. Jan Willem |

Are we really really sure that's it's no Tephritidae ? It really does NOT look like Sciomyzidae. Theo Zeegers |

Vein Sc link to C on angle far less than 90, it is my reason why not Tephritidae.

And are there many Tephritidae with a long plumose arista?

My guess is Lauxaniidae, near Homoneura. There are several lauxaniid genera with dotted wings in the eatern Palearctic and no doubt also some in the Oriental region.

Dear all, The bristles on the legs and abdomen are far too large for a Tephritid! As is the colour of the eyes. So I'd rather go with Lauxanidae. John |

Hi Nikita, Here http://xespok.net...auxaniidae you'll find a very similar fly which is one of the easily identifiable Lauxaniid flies of Japan. It is supposed to be Homoneura euaresta. Whehter it is the same species or a closely related one is difficult to say. The wing pattern is somewhat variable. Xespok |

Thank you Xespok. I have Shatalkin's key to Palearctic Lauxaniidae. According this key it is Homoneura, but not H.euaresta. Also according it Oriental region is center of Homoneurinae diversity. As illustration of this fact I can add another one Thai Homoneurinae. Fly is collected, may be Shatalkin himself know it till species.

According Shatalkin's guide for Palearctic Lauxaniidae there are 3 species with such a painted wings: H. euaresta - Japan-Korea-Russia Far East, H. picta - widespread China-Oriental, H. trypetoptera - widespread Oriental, possibly South China. H. trypetoptera - arista with hair as long or more than 3-d segm antenae wide (rest two Homoneura - arista hair 1/3 as long...). H. trypetoptera - femora yellow with narrow brown ring in apical part. So I think it is Homoneura trypetoptera.

Finally confirmed by Anatoliy Shatalkin as Homoneura trypetoptera
