A very pretty fly. I am not sure of the family in this case (but I hope it is one of the small specialized acalyptrate families).

I think it's Leucopis in Chamaemyiidae.

That is what I thought. I guess species is not possible in this difficult genus.

The brown stripes reduce the number of possible species but I am not up to speed any more...

Definitely Leucopis, but Paul's right - no way to go farther from a photo - unless it's a series of photos of the male genitalia from various angles!  The presence of brown stripes doesn't narrow it down by much.Steve |
