This is my first posting on this forum. I like to photograph small things, but never know what they are called. This specimen was on a young Eucalyptus tree in South Eastern Australia. Photographed in January 2011. And you would be able to see it if I was able to upload it. It is a .jpg of 127 Kb, but still cannot upload it. Margaret Leggoe attached the following image:  [130.5Kb] Edited by Margaret Leggoe on 03-10-2012 21:54 |

Has the filename got any spaces or strange characters in it? Try changing it so it only contains letters. |

Looks like Ulidiidae, but I am not too familiar with Australian Platystomatidae to know for certain they might not look similar.

Rivellia sp. (Platystomatidae) I believe. The M vein curved downwards into the the discal cell before r-m is typical. Plus the rather thin crosswing markings. Tony (Tasmania) |

Thanks Tony. I have just seen a photo of an identical fly on a certain Tasmanian website I suspect you are familiar with. Cheers Margaret. |
