For your entertainment; another small fly that I've been calling a Tephritid until someone informs me otherwise; Place: Low-level farmland, Chongwe District, Lusaka Province, Zambia Date: 23/10/2011 Size: around 6mm, possibly smaller. EDIT - forgot photo. Trying again. (Photo had not yet been shrunk to fit... fixed) Will van Niekerk attached the following image:  [143.31Kb] Edited by Will van Niekerk on 18-01-2012 00:29 |

I cannot see the wing but it reminds me of Bengalia (Calliphoridae).

Cropped the original to show the wing as best I can, changed exposure for the veins. Not great, but it may help?

I would say Bengalia.
