Picture (just one lasteral shot) taken last August in east China (Zhejiang province). It looks somewhat like a Mallota and Pterallastes. Which genus is correct? Or could it be something else? Many thanks in advance!

Perhaps it is a Mallota (=Tigridemyia) curvigaster. Reference: https://v3.boldsystems.org/pics/CNCFF/CNC464906%2B1449166542.jpg
